  1. Nigeria police are the cause of this attack, the reason been that they have been overlooking some criminal activities that graduated to this attack, it’s a duty of an authorized police men to question most of those police we do see hanging around d interchange, end of longbridge, Kara cow market and toll gate at Lagos end of Lagos -Ibadan exp way, but they neglected those danger signs and that’s why it’s easy to gather themselves and disguise knowing fully well that NO ONE will question them
