Giving update on the jailbreak which occurred Monday, 13 September, 2021, the Controller General of Custodial Centres in Nigeria, Haliru Nababa, stated that a swift intervention from his office led to the recapturing of the fleeing prisoners.
The CG personally led a team to the Custodial Centre for on-the-spot assessment, directed immediate Search Party Response Team to go after the escapees.
Security has also been beefed up through the deployment of additional armed squad personnel to fortify the facility.
The CG commended the collaboration and support extended to the Service by sister security agencies including the Vigilante groups which has assisted in recapturing the fleeing inmates.
