13 inmates that fled Abolongo Correctional Centre in Oyo town, after the facility was attacked on Friday had been apprehended in Ife Odan, a town in Ejigbo local government area of Osun state.

A reliable security source, who preferred anonymity, on Sunday told The PUNCH that the inmates were wandering in the town on Saturday, when policemen on patrol arrested them.

Amitolu said, “We deployed men to Ogburo, Owu Ile, Ikonifin and other communities along Osun/Oyo boundary. We are also in contact with the residents of these communities and we have made them realised the need for them not to harbor any suspects.

“Our men are searching those communities.We are on top of the situation.”

The Special Adviser to Osun State Governor on Security, Mrs. Abiodun Ige, refused to confirmed the arrest while speaking with our correspondent in Osogbo on Sunday.

But Ige said the state government was providing necessary support for the Nigeria Correctional Service to keep its facilities in Ilesa and Ife more save.

The spokesperson of Osun Police Command, Yemisi Opalola, however confirmed arrest of some suspected inmates in Ejigbo, but asked for more time to get other details.

The source said with the development, security along Oyo/Osun border communities, especially in Ejigbo axis had been tightened.

Also, a resident of Ejigbo, simply identified as Ademola, said residents of the town, and other adjoining communities had been put on red alert to report any suspicious movement, as security agents continue search for inmates that fled Oyo Correctional Centre that may be hiding in the area.

When contacted, the Field Commander, Osun Amotekun Corps, Amitolu Shittu, said men of the corps had been deployed to some villages at the boundary of the two states.

The chairman of Ejigbo local government, Gold Ayegbayo, in a chat, confirmed arrest of 13 inmates in Ife Odan town.

Ayegbayo, who said immediately the inmates were arrested, they were moved to Ejigbo, where police profiled them, added that after they had been screened, the inmates were transferred to State Intelligence and Criminal Investigation Department of Osun State Police Command in Osogbo.

He said, “They were 13 in number. They escaped to Ife Odan, Ejigbo West LCDA after the jail break in Oyo. The policemen were on patrol in Ife Odan town, when they saw these men, they were strange faces.

“Policemen accosted and interviewed them. They made personal confession that they were inmates that fled Oyo Correctional Facility. They were moved to Ejigbo Divisional Headquarters, where police profiled them before they were moved to SCID in Osogbo.”

Just read what the guy below said.. ✌

Until they rearrest Wakili who coordinated the jail break from prison in collaboration with some Officers this news is inconsequential.

The same Wakili is the one that nitwitted zombies (even those from South West) called an innocent blind man who Igboho was only victimizing.



Being a zombie automatically makes you brain numbed.

If they are awaiting trial for smoking or being in possession of marijuana, pls let them go

These ones na mumu

Only 13....

That is good, no place for prison escapee in the south west

OK

That's good

If you checked them go sit down the drink ogogoro first

Lies... Show Us Pic.

Sorry IPOB!!

This thread is still on page one, just add Owerri Prison to it so that Nairaland can make more money with traffic and take it to page 20 fast.
I have come to realise that Nigerians are mesmerised by Igbos no matter how much we pretend, some hate them for incomprehensible reasons while others just love them sometimes for their stubbornness and Can Do spirit.
This site thrives on Igbo related threads and that's why they are constantly on FP. There's a lot we can learn from Igbos and there's also a lot Igbos can learn from other Nigerians to move this nation forward

Omoluabis now finally have mind to break prison, are they tired of carrying IPOB matter on their head?

In other news, man United buy GOAT but Liverpool use am do SALAH.

United fans are like, should we join Liverpool?

If they do their bit in arresting and incarcerating all the repentant Boko Haram in the north east and fulani herdsmen terrorizing the South whatever they are doing will be commendable.

They are fleeing to the north, when the they catch the one fleeing to South East? Yoruba land must have peace

Mumu inmate

They will avoid capturing Wakili, the Fulani killer. They will hide him like Abbah kyari

Where their faces abi them no get pic with d warders?

Hmmm... Most of them didn't prepare for the jail break to have alert family or friends that would have sent money for them to have disappeared to a far distant place

When it happened in the South, we said they are fighting for their oil, they took a few politically motivated and called it amnesty.
It happened in the North we said they were provoked boys who fought for the death of their leaders.
It happened in the East, we said they are fighting for their own country.
It happened in the North West, we called them innocent bandits who only attack to feed.
Now it is happening in the West, what do we call them?
