Abuja – The Department of State
Services, DSS, has
paraded five suspects, who carried out the May 14 bomb blast
at Nyanya bus terminal that claimed 74 lives and injured many others.
The suspects are: Ahmed Rufai
Abubakar, alias Abu Ibrahim/Maiturare, Muhammadu Sani Ishaq, Yau Saidu, alias
Kotar Rama, Anas Isah and Adamu Yusuf.
At a joint press briefing attended
by officials of defence headquarters, the Nigeria Police, the Deputy Director
of Public Relations at the DSS, Marilyn Ogar, said the blast was masterminded
by one Rufai Abubakar Tsiga, a Boko Haram leader, who is currently on the run.
Ogar said Tsiga was assisted by
another suspect, one Aminu Sadiq, a student of Arabic Language at the
International University of Africa, Sudan and a native of Orokam, Ogbadibo
Local Government Area of Benue State.
Both men, who are at large, have
been declared wanted by the security agencies. The DSS has offered to pay any
informant the sum of N25 million for information that may lead to their arrest.
More details later.
