Two arrested for attempting to bomb Idembia bridge in Ebonyi
Two people have been arrested in Ebonyi State for attempting to bomb a bridge in Ezza South Local government Area.
The suspects were caught while planting the improvised explosive devices on Idembia bridge.
Governor David Umahi stated this in a special security situation broadcast on Friday.
He said the arrest followed intelligence reports that some members of a political party were planning to bomb Bridges and other installations in the state.
He said the two suspects were arrested by villagers living close to the bridge which links Ezza South to Ohaozara local government area.
The governor also said that a National Assembly Candidate of a political party a few days ago went to a quarry site in the state to purchase explosives but was turned down by the operators who also reported to the state government.
