Former aide to President Goodluck Jonathan, Reno Omokri, has alleged that suspected terrorists who bombed a Kaduna-bound train on Monday leaving scores dead are elements working with Jihadists in President Muhammadu Buhari regime.
In his social media handles on Tuesday, Omokri, who’s on exile since the assumption of office by the APC-led Federal Government in 2015, said the attack was strategic.
“These terrorists are working with Jihadists in the Buhari administration, and I know at least one of them, who is no longer in government.
“The late Obadiah Mailafia also knew this, and said so publicly, before he died in extremely suspicious circumstances.
“The attack on Kaduna airport was strategic. It was a typical Jihadi terror strategy.
“The intention was to attack the airport and make it seem unsafe, to make people afraid and drive them to use the trains, where the terrorists were already waiting.
“They did not want to kill and abduct ordinary citizens. They wanted big fishes who would normally fly.
“And the only way to get them was to make the airport unsafe.
“It was coordinated with their sympathisers in Buhari’s cabal. Don’t forget that in this administration we have a minister who said on video that he takes delight in the killing of infidels.
“He was retained, while another minister, who had a forged NYSC certificate, was sacked. Nigeria, think!” he admonished.
Stonix News had reported that some suspected terrorists had bombed a Kaduna-bound train, killing eight, injuring many and kidnapping scores.
Meanwhile, the Trade Union Congress (TUC) of Nigeria says it has lost two of its members in Monday’s attack on the Abuja-Kaduna bound train.
Stonix News reports that Secretary-General of the TUC, Barrister Musa-Lawal Ozigi, was among the passengers killed when terrorists bombed and derailed an Abuja-Kaduna train and abducted scores of passengers.
However, it was learnt on Tuesday that the Kwara State Chairman of the TUC, Comrade Akinsola Akinwunmi, was also killed during the attack.
“We lost our SG (Secretary-general) and the Kwara State Chairman,” a source in the TUC disclosed.
“Barrister Musa-Lawal Ozigi is dead. He was among those who were attacked yesterday by bandits in Kaduna-Abuja railway,” the source noted.
