The Nigeria Correctional Service (NCoS) has given its own side of the story after ISWAP terrorists busted up the the Kuje break, and reports flowed about dereliction of duty, especially in auctioning intelligence reports.

The NCoS stated that it only gathered intelligence about the custodial centre in Bauchi and one other place.

“We didn’t have intelligence about Kuje Correctional Centre. The intelligence we had was about Bauchi and another. We will only appeal to the communities where these facilities are located to assist us with intelligence. It also has to do with the synergy among the various security agencies,” said Umar Abubakara, spokesman of the NCoS on TVC News Thursday.

“All our facilities are fortified. What I want to tell you is that what they adopted is the principle of surprise. They came in with IEDs to our facilities and when they came in, the armed men on ground engaged them in a fierce battle.

“They shared themselves into three. There was an attempt to gain entrance through the main gate of the facility but they could not. Because of the fierce battle from the armed men on ground. The third group now used IEDs by the wall. They brought down the wall and got access to the facility.”

Umar disclosed that an officer of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) lost his life in the Tuesday attack, while some men of the NCoS sustained gunshot injuries.

He explained further that three of the terrorists were shot dead as some escaped with bullet wounds.

President Muhammadu Buhari expressed his disappointment when he visited the facility on Wednesday, demanding a report.
