An emergency security council meeting between Governor Hope Uzodimma and heads of security agencies in Imo State is about to commence.
This meeting is not unconnected to the attack on the Nigeria Correctional Service Imo state command and the Imo state police command which led to the release of an unconfirmed number of inmates.
The attack also saw to the setting ablaze of not less than 50 operational vehicles belonging to the Police and Nigeria Correctional Centre.
Spokesperson of the Nigeria Correctional Service in Imo state, James Madugba says the authorities are still trying to get the accurate data of inmates who escaped and the level of devastation.
