Soldiers raid Mosque in Aba, arrest Imam, 10 others over plans to manufacture bombs
Reports in Aba have it that soldiers on Sunday around 2 : 00 am carried out a raid at Aba Central Mosque and the residence of some Muslims in the town .13 people were arrested - Chief Imam of the mosque, Idris Bashir; his deputy, Mohammed Hassan; and eleven others over suspicion of stockpiling guns and planning to manufacture bombs. Four persons at the mosque were arrested while the others were picked from their homes.
The Chief Imam told newsmen that only eleven of them were released.
"They took us to the 144 Battalion Barracks at Asa where their commander informed us that we are being suspected of stockpiling guns and manufacturing bombs. However, after sometime, the officer said since nothing was found after their search of our houses, mosque and shops we should be released.The other two, who are the Director and Principal of New Horizon Academy, are still with the military," he said.
The Imam also told reporters that soldiers in their raid saw some bottles of chemicals at the science laboratory of the school and accused the school officials of using them to manufacture bombs ![this is funny though]
"The bottles were not hidden and were kept aside in the lab because there were only five students offering the subject and three of them are already married and the other two appear to lose interest in the subject, so the bottles are even empty,” he said.When contacted, the spokesperson of the Nigerian Army, Olajide Laleye, said he was yet to get the full details of the operation. He said he would provide the details as soon as he got them."
