Nigerian army presents anti-bombing tools to churches, mosques

The Nigerian army on Thursday July 26th presented vehicle stoppers to some churches and mosques in the North. The device is designed to stop any vehicle from all angle at any speed.

The army explained that since most attacks of suicide bombers are being carried out with vehicles loaded with improvised explosive devices (IEDs), these vehicle stoppers disallow bombers from reaching their targets as it forcefully stops any vehicle that comes in contact with it at whatever speed.

The move was part of the army's corporate social responsibility in curtailing the spate of suicide bombing at worship centres in the north.
