In another report reaching us at Oyoaffairs, most of the escapees from the federal correctional centre have been arrested by the security operatives who swung into action after the incident.
Rt. Hon. Asimiyu Niran Alarape, who is the minority leader and also represents the Atiba constituency in Oyo State house of assembly also confirmed that effort is ongoing by the security operatives to recapture other inmates who escaped from the prison during the jailbreak.
