Concerns as soldiers linked to Boko Haram reportedly escape in Borno jail break

Concerns as soldiers linked to Boko Haram reportedly escape in Borno jail break

Nine military officers allegedly linked to Boko Haram
terrorists reportedly escaped on Monday from a military guardroom at Maimalari
Cantonment in Maiduguri, Borno State.

 

Military sources confirmed the jailbreak to SaharaReporters.

 

However, the Nigerian Army is yet to react to the
development at the time of filing this report.

 

The escapees were alleged to be involved in arms trafficking
to terrorist groups operating in Nigeria’s North-East.

 

It was gathered that reports of the jailbreak have led to
serious concerns within Nigeria’s security sector.

 

The development comes days after President Bola Tinubu
appointed new service chiefs.

 

In September 2024 over 200 inmates escaped from the Borno
prison due to a flooding incident.
