JOS, Nigeria—Lawmakers in Nigeria have demanded a probe of a recent mass jailbreak in Central Plateau State, raising questions about collusion by prison employees. Prison administrators have deflected or stonewalled queries by journalists and elected officials.
“From the security networking around the prison and the way the incident occurred, it is clear that there was compromise on the part of securities working within that [prison],” said Congressman Simon Mwadkwon to The Epoch Times.
