The Cable reports that
114 of the 266 inmates who escaped from Kabba Correctional Centre in Kogi State have been re-arrested. This is after Rauf Aregbesola, minister of
interior, said a special taskforce has been "activated" to
recapture the fleeing inmates. It will be recall that gunmen stormed Kabba
Correctional Centre in the early hours of Monday, September 13, killing two
security operatives and freeing 240 inmates.
"We have about 114 inmates back now. Some of the inmates returned themselves but I cannot give a definite figure for that. In fact, two just returned not too long ago. Some of the inmates were brought back by their parents. We have a search party with other security agencies to capture the remaining inmates,"the minister said.
