THE prosecution witness five and a principal technical officer with the Communication Intelligence Department of the State Security Services (SSS) in the October 1, 2010 twin bombing in Abuja, Wasiu Agbaje, on Thursday, told a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja that the explosion was simply to “shake the nation” and create confusion in government.
Agbaje, who gave evidence in the ongoing trial of one of the accused, Edmund Ebiware, who was charged alongside three others for the bombing, also released the transcripts of text messages extracted from two phones seized from Ebiware.
He said the text messages linked notable individuals in the country, including the chairman of a private broadcast outfit.
The witness said the bombing on the Independence Day was planned for months before the bombers struck, adding that the text messages extracted from Ebiware’s phones and the time the messages were sent informed his conclusions
