The Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress has alleged that recent terror attacks across the country are being aided by “insiders,” claiming that elements within Nigeria’s security architecture are sabotaging national efforts in collaboration with external forces.
A statement issued on Saturday by the Lagos APC spokesman, Seye Oladejo, warned that “traitors” within the system were enabling terrorists to strike with precision.
Oladejo said, “Nigeria stands at a decisive historical junction – not because we are weak, but because enemies of the state, saboteurs in high places, and foreign instigators believe they can manipulate the destiny of a sovereign nation of 230 million people. They are mistaken. Their plot will fail.”
He linked what he described as a surge in coordinated attacks to “internal sabotage,” adding: “There is no magic or mystery when terrorists successfully launch attacks despite our advanced intelligence capabilities and iron-proof security alerts.
“This is nothing short of internal sabotage. It is the clear evidence of supposed protectors working hand-in-glove with aggressors.”
According to him, the precision of recent attacks suggests leaks from within the system.
“Only insiders can compromise operations so precisely. Only traitors leak movement details so accurately. Only saboteurs deliberately open gaps that enemies exploit. This is not incompetence – it is collaboration,” he said.
Oladejo alleged a pattern of compromise, including “terrorists striking soft targets with uncanny precision,” “deliberate weakening or standing down of checkpoints at critical hours,” and “surge in attacks immediately after external provocations.”
