President Muhammadu Buhari has been mocked for visiting the Kuje Correctional Facility following the jailbreak.
Deji Adeyanju, a socio-political activist, said the jailbreak that led to the escape of about 150 prisoners’ has exposed Buhari as an incompetent leader.
Adeyanju recalled how Buhari promised to ensure the security of Nigerians in 2015.
In a tweet, Adeyanju wrote: “Buhari in Kuje prison where over 150 terrorists escaped. If incompetence was a person. This was a man who promised heaven and earth in 2015. This is why I’m so scared of messiahs or people who make beautiful promises. We warned Nigerians in 2015 but we were insulted.”
Unknown gunmen had attacked the Kuje Correctional facility on Tuesday night.
Speaking on the incident, the Minister of Defence, Bashir Magashi, said the 64 Boko Haram suspects in Kuje Correctional Facility are missing.
Magashi said the attackers are Boko Haram insurgents and 64 of its members, who were inmates in the facility, cannot be found.
