The Department of State of State Service,
DSS has raised the alarm that at least 13
pieces of Reverend Sisters’ regalia of the
Catholic Church have been stolen from a
shop in Kano state purportedly for suicide
bombing.
A statement from the deputy director,
information of the SSS, Marilyn Ogar, made
available to LEADERSHIP Weekend advised
Nigerians to look out for persons, especially
female suicide bombers who may disguise
in the attire
The statement reads in parts, “On 20th
August, 2014, about 0400 hours, some yet
to be identified persons broke into a tailoring
shop located at No.55 Odutola Street,
Sabon Gari, Kano, and stole about thirteen
(13) pieces of Reverend Sisters’ regalia of
the Catholic Church. With the recent trend in
female suicide bombings in the country, the
removal of these regalia may be the
handiwork of terrorists’ elements that may
want to perpetrate acts of terror using such
garments.
“Consequently, this Service has taken
necessary pre-emptive measures to thwart
the exploitation of distinct religious wears
for terrorist purposes. We also wish to draw
public attention to this development and call
on all citizens to be more circumspect and
exercise greater vigilance with users of such
peculiar attires.
“We enjoin all and sundry to continue to
cooperate with law enforcement agencies
through the provision of useful information
on suspicious activities within their
immediate environment. This Service will
continue to collaborate with all stakeholders
as we strive to keep our country
