According to PT, the suspected mastermind of the 2010 Independence Day bombings, Charles Okah, did not escape from Kuje Prison in Abuja. The spokesperson for the Nigerian Prisons Service, Francis Enobore, was quoted as saying: “It is not true (that he escaped). He is there (Kuje prison) hale and hearty.
The comptroller of prisons in charge of the FCT was there less than 30 minutes ago and he saw him there. I spoke to the controller. Yes there was an incident yesterday, but Henry Okah was not involved. The Comptoller pf prisons has ordered an investigation and that is going on. We want to know if anybody escaped and if yes, what are their identities.”
