Barely a week after barrage of bomb

blasts rocked Jos, the Plateau state

capital, residents of Jos still live in

apprehension and fear even at the

sound of tire burst aside rumors of

impending attacks in parts of Jos

and its environs.

We investigation reveals that many

social events billed to hold on

Children’s day celebrations and

Democracy day had to be cancelled.

Children were asked to stay put at

home for fear of the unknown even

as the arrest of a gun runner at NTA

Jos motor park located at Yakubu

Gowon way on Wednesday this week

while attempting to board a vehicle

to southern part of Kaduna state,

had added to fears and

apprehension in the hearts of

residents of the city who now mount

road blocks at junctions of many

neighborhoods in the Plateau state

capital.

A reliable source that a suspect

arrested in connection with attacks

in Jos has confessed that they were

10 in number sent to carry out bomb

attacks in different parts of the

city, saying people should be on the

watch out for the remaining nine

others still at large.

Meanwhile security in and around

Jos, has been beefed up with

security checks at all check points

within the city centre while at the

state secretariat housing estate,

workers offices on Friday

witnessed serious security checks

on motorists entering the state

secretariat for one transaction or

the other.

Vehicle owners were told to park

their cars far away from the

buildings in the secretariat after

being checked with metal detectors.

It was gathered from various

neighborhoods in Jos city that

youths have mobilized themselves

into vigilante groups monitoring cars

and trucks packed at suspicious

locations by their owners while

most offices and business centers

in the city have barricades at the

entrance of their buildings and

security personnel to monitor

themselves to subject such fellows
