ARMED ATTACK ON ABOLONGO CUSTODIAL CENTRE

At about 10.00 pm yesterday, October 22, 2021, a large number of heavily-armed gunmen attacked the Abolongo Custodial Centre, in Oyo, Oyo State.

Armed squad unit members of the Nigerian Correctional Service and other security agencies on guard at the facility engaged the attackers in a gun duel that lasted for 20 minutes before they were overpowered.

The attackers subsequently used grenades and other explosives to gain access into the awaiting trial section of the facility and set free many of the awaiting trial inmates. Other sections of the facilities were left untouched.

The Controller General of the Nigerian Correctional Service has been on the situation immediately the incident occurred.

The Minister of Interior has been briefed on the attack. He is monitoring the situation.

He has assured members of the public to go about their normal businesses as the situation is under control. He also requires members of the public to report any suspicious movement or any sign of the escaped inmates and the gunmenin and around the vicinity to the nearest security post around them.

Security agencies are on the trail of the escaped inmates, while a joint security services manhunt has been launched immediately for the apprehension of the assailants.

This has led to the capture of some of the inmates while others returned voluntarily. However, those who are on the run are advised to turn themselves in, as escape from lawful custody is a serious offense. The full weight of the law will be brought on them when arrested!

When the ISWAP/Boko Haram fighters attacked and set prisoners free in Imo state, nobody challenged them despite the fact that the prison was very close to Police headquarters, with a military barracks near.
Oyo state must be careful before the Buhari cabal drafts Nigeria’s armed forces to the area to kill innocent civilians.
The mortuary in Owerri was filled by tens of innocent civilians murdered by soldiers after the Imo prison escape.

We are on how to fight a Jihad by government using terrorists and government institutions.

Way malami abeg blame kanu

Failed Government of Naijeriya, FGN

Hahahaha [center][/center]
They are eligible to vote anywhere and it's their right

If I happen to be in this type of situation (God forbid) na until I reach cotonou before I go catch my breath and relax small...
Some of them might even be innocent of the allegations levied against them..
Naija system is a disgrace to the world

so it was half weight of the law that brought them into prison abi

Unserious government.
Nigeria is at War

At no time in Nigeria's history have we had so many cases of Prison breaks until now.

Aregberascal is an Islamic fanatic and I know he is behind all and every prison break since he was appointed as Minister of Interior.

Add it to odogwu nnamdi KANU charge. He is the one responsible for all our problems in the zoo.
