Boko Haram: What could go wrong if Apapa-Lagos is Bombed?

Ariel view of Apapa

Above is an aerial view of what the foremost port area Apapa, Lagos looks like. Most people who are familiar with the Apapa axis know this area is a Crude Oil zone. This where refined crude oil (fuel, kerosene etc) is dispatched to other major depots around the country. Most of our crude oil practically lives in this zone. Can you imagine the damage this would cause our nation and the state if it goes in flames? There will be damage to both life and properties. God forbid, the terrorist to win.

Report says, intelligence has revealed a possible attack on Lagos, with strong likelihood that the Apapa Seaport is the target again. The police command in charge of the Port Said that security has been beefed up within the Sea Port and around Lagos.

We recall that in June this year, there was an attack in Apapa at the Folawiyo Energy Depot at creek Road where the suicide bombers launched a twin explosion. Later in July, Shekau Abubakar the leader of the Boko Haram sect claimed responsibility of the attack, according to the French news agency, Agence France-Presse.
We really hope that the security agencies in Lagos are at alert because we dont want to be sleeping to realize our homes are burning; we were sleeping when the Chibok girls were abducted in April till date the haven't been found nor those responsible persecuted.
Lagosians be vigilant.
