Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Sequel to the attack on the Correctional Facility in Jos, the Plateau State Capital, the Plateau State Police Command said seven inmates have been rearrested.<\/p>\n

The Jos Correctional Facility is located in the heart of Jos, and apparently should have been the safest part of the city.<\/p>\n

Beside the Centre is the State headquarters of the Department of State Services, DSS, the Police A Division and just across the road is the State headquarters of the Nigeria Police.<\/p>\n

Confirming the rearrest, Spokesman of the State Police Command, ASP Ubah Ogaba said, \u201cOn 28th November, 2021 at about 17:20 hours, the medium-security custodial centre in Jos came under attack by yet to be identified gunmen where some inmates escaped.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to him, \u201cUpon receipt of the report, the Commissioner of Police Plateau State Command, Bartholomew Onyeka who led reinforcement to the scene, directed that the entire Centre be cordoned.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe CP also directed immediate stop and search where seven escapees have been re-arrested by the Police and are in custody, while one escapee voluntarily surrendered himself to the Police.<\/p>\n

\u201cBased on the prompt response, the situation was brought under control by the superior gunfire of security agencies.\u201d<\/p>\n

The CP reaffirmed that the Police and other security agencies were currently on ground to effectively deprive the hoodlums of the space they desire to perpetrate their evil acts.<\/p>\n
