Dr. Abubakar Tsav, a former Lagos State Commissioner of Police, reacting to Boko Haram’s latest video and claims of being responsible for the twin explosions in Apapa, Lagos State, said that the video simply means that Boko Haram could infiltrate anywhere.
Tsav blamed President Goodluck Jonathan for the continual existence of the dreaded sect, insisting that the President was handling the issue with kidgloves.
According to him, it was now left to citizens of Lagos State and Nigeria to secure their lives themselves by knowing the people within their communities.
His words: “By that video, Boko Haram is telling us that we must be vigilant and security conscious.
“They’re telling us that they can infiltrate anywhere.
“If they can infiltrate Lagos, it means they can infiltrate anywhere.
“It’s a very serious issue.
“But it’s sad that the government of Jonathan is not taking the issue very serious or it would have done and finish with this Boko Haram.
“Look at the case of the Chibok girls.
“For the first 18 days after they were kidnapped, nothing was done until more girls were kidnapped.
“Everybody should now become security conscious.
“Let’s adopt operation know your neighbours.
“If strangers come into the community, we should alert security agencies.
“Let’s not leave it in the hands of the security agencies.
“They can’t do it alone.
“We should all be involved.”
