Rabe Abubakar, the Defence spokesperson, on Monday, December 21.
According to the military, some of new tactics that terrorists use include crying, feigning pains and shouting to attract sympathy from unsuspecting public before bombing them.
“When a lot of people of goodwill gather to render help in the process, the suicide bomber detonates bombs which they conceal under their clothes. The recent suicide bombing in Damaturu is instructive.
“Similarly, suicide bombers used monetary incentives and other inducements especially in crowded places to lure innocent citizens in order to cause colossal damage to both lives and property. Yola suicide incident is fresh in our memory,” he said.
“The Defence Headquarters warns citizens to be extra vigilant and wary of terrorist malevolence in such places as parks, worship centres and recreation spots particularly in this festive period. Citizens are advised to report suspicious persons or objects to security agencies for prompt action,”
