Kabba Jail break: KGSG confirm attack, assures security operatives are on top of situation
Kogi State Government has confirmed that some gunmen attacked the Kabba Custodial Centre but investigations were still on to clearly ascertain the number of inmates that escaped from the Centre.
In a press statement signed by the Commissioner for Information and Communication strategy, Mr. Kingsley Fanwo he stated that two security operatives were killed in the ugly incidence.
He said “The State Security Adviser, Commander Jerry Omodara (rtd) is currently at the Centre with the Kogi State Commissioner of Police and the Commander, Army Records, Lokoja.
Security Agencies have zeroed in to ensure those who escaped are rearrested as well as trail the masterminds of the attack” he explained
The Commissioner expressed the state’s confidence in the security agencies to unmask the masterminds responsible for the attack and get them apprehended.
“Our security network has led to the rearrest of majority of the inmates that escaped as some have also come back to the centre on their own” he stated
He noted Security agencies, traditional rulers and local hunters are working in synergy to ensure normalcy.
Mr. Fanwo urge Kogi citizens and citizens of neighbouring states to help volunteer information that will ensure the apprehension of the masterminds of the dastardly act.
He stressed that the people should go about their normal businesses as security agencies are doing their best to ensure security of lives and property in the face of the unfortunate breach.
