URGENT ALERT: Threatened Attacks in Jos June 23-24 and June 30-July 1

CCI has received the following information. We received the information in a manner that precludes timely verification, confirmation or analysis. The reported source of the information is reliable, however, we have no way of assessing the content that was reported to this (reliable) source. However given the history of Boko Haram (the “BH”) listed below, this information cannot be discounted and should not be ignored.

Here is the text of the statement received by CCI:

“The substance of the briefing today (apparently June 22, 2012) was that the police commissioner reported that they had multiple credible sources of information that were all saying that BH plans to target Jos this weekend and next weekend and that pastors and church leaders should take every possible precaution during these two weekends.”
