The buying of fertilizers by insurgents to make bombs have drawn the attention of the Nigerian Army’s Defence Headquarters (DHQ).
This update was given by Maj. Gen. John Enenche, the Coordinator of the Directorate of Defence Media Operations, (DDMO) on Friday January 15. He disclosed this during a media briefing on military operations from January 7 to 13. According to Enenche, the buying of fertilizers poses a security threat considering the current situation of insecurity the country faces. He said;“While fertilisers are majorly for agricultural purposes, the possibility of it being acquired by criminal gangs, terrorists and militants for sinister purposes cannot be disregarded as fertiliser has remained a potential component for the fabrication of explosives owing to its content of Ammonium Nitrate. “Furthermore, fertiliser poses a security threat considering current security challenges.”
