Jailbreak Drama: 12 Inmates Bust Out of Kogi Prison!

There’s been a dramatic prison break in Kogi State! In the early hours of Monday, a group of inmates pulled off an escape from the Federal Correctional Centre in Kotonkarfe, leaving authorities scrambling to track them down.

While the official numbers are yet to be confirmed, reports suggest that at least 12 prisoners have vanished into thin air. Now, here’s the kicker: unlike previous jailbreaks where gunmen stormed the place, this one was a clean escape. The inmates reportedly fled through the tower without even damaging the structure. Suspicious much?

Officials at the prison are keeping tight-lipped, but the Kogi State government isn’t letting this slide. Commissioner for Information and Communication, Kingsley Fanwo, has spoken out, calling the incident “unfortunate” and promising swift action. The government wants the Federal Government to launch a full-blown investigation to uncover what really went down.

Governor Ahmed Usman Ododo has also stepped in, directing the State Security Adviser to team up with the Federal Correctional Centre and other security forces to prevent future escapes. The state has also pledged extra support to security agencies, providing better logistics and resources to tighten up the system.

Here’s where it gets even weirder. How did the inmates escape without causing any damage? That’s a huge red flag. Could there be an inside job? Authorities are looking into the possibility of saboteurs who might have helped them pull this off.

Meanwhile, security operatives are on high alert, hunting down the escapees. Fanwo has also urged residents to be extra vigilant. If you spot any suspicious faces lurking around, don’t hesitate to report them. And here’s a heads-up: anyone caught harboring an escaped prisoner will face serious consequences.

Despite the chaos, the government is assuring citizens that there’s no need to panic. Security is on top of the situation, and things are under control. So, go about your daily hustle, but stay alert and report anything fishy.

This is one jailbreak that won’t be swept under the rug. Keep your eyes peeled for updates as the hunt for the escapees continues!
