No fewer than 228 Prison inmates have escaped from Koton Karfe in Kogi State after the building collapsed due to flooding.
An official of the Nigerian Correctional Service, Jafar Ahmed, made this known while speaking with journalists in Koton Kafe.
Flood occasioned by heavy downpour on Monday morning aided the prisoners escape from the Medium Federal Prisons, Kotonkarfe, according to the News Agency of Nigeria.
