Deputy Speaker House of Representatives, Ahmed Idris Wase, has disclosed that the Department of State Services (DSS) presented 44 security reports before the Kuje Prison attack in Abuja.
Recall that on July 5, some terrorists invaded Kuje prison and freed some inmates including all the Boko Haram members in detention.
Contributing to a motion by Abubakar Makki Yelleman (APC Jigawa) to halt the planned ban on the use of motorcycles across the nation by the federal government at the plenary on Tuesday, July 26, Wase said the government should be supported to implement such moves in vulnerable communities as the ban could check banditry, terrorism and other criminalities.
He said: “You can imagine what is happening today in Abuja. I will be frank with you. I went through DSS reports. 44 reports were given before the attack of Kuje. I want to say so, I want to confirm to you, 44. I went through all the reports. And it all has to do with this.
“There is no community that one attack or the other will happen and we will not have an intel, and this is part of the intel that, they have given as what is going (to) happen, what is happening and what is not going to happen”.
