Popular journalist identified as Fisayo Soyombo has stated that the Edo jailbreak that happened in the morning could not have taken place without the assistance of some of the prison officials.

Soyombo who once lived inside a prison cell as an inmate during an undercover investigation in 2019 said it is impossible for hoodlums or protesters to break into a prison to set prisoners free without the tacit support of prison security.

Reacting to the jailbreak via his Twitter handle, Fisayo wrote;

”As someone who lived eight days in prison as an inmate during an undercover investigation, I can tell you that it is NOT possible for unarmed protesters or hoodlums to break into a prison in Edo State or elsewhere and set inmates free. Ko possible, sir.
