The Federal Government has said it is considering relocating the Medium Security Custodial Centre in Suleja, Niger State, following the jailbreak that saw the escape of 119 inmates.

During a visit to the centre on Thursday, the Minister of Interior, Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, revealed that the facility houses 499 inmates, as opposed to the expected 250 that it was initially built for.

He confirmed that a total of 119 inmates had escaped, however, adding that 13 were re-arrested.
