No fewer than 422 inmates who escaped from the Kuje Medium Custodial Facility, Abuja during the July 5, 2022 jailbreak are yet to be recaptured.
You will recall that 879 inmates, including 64 high-profile Boko Haram terrorists fled the facility during the jailbreak.
The Nigerian Correctional Service’s spokesperson, Umar Abubakar, had said five persons, including an officer of the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps and four inmates, died during the attack.
Hours later, the Islamic State in West Africa Province claimed responsibility for the attack.
