“The Depot Owners have already begun plans to purchase bomb detectors, search gears and more scanners for the community task force. If you notice, at the barricade in Mosheshe Industrial Estate, the CDA task forces have already started using scanners for their search. By next week, another barricade will be mounted at Biola Johnson Crescent near Obollo Crescent to ensure tight security for the Depots. 

Soonest, the sea shores will be fortified with community task force sea patrol who will be trained by the Navy and our task force security personnel’s will be trained too. The Depot Owners are actually working against the threat received by the Boko haram sect seriously.” Mr. Oluwa said.

However, the Task forces at the Mosheshe Industrial Estate have not discovered any bomb fragments or suspicious movement lately since they mounted the barricade last week, but they have been on guard day and night checking and searching everyone who must pass the barricade check point.
