According to Bashir Magashi, the Minister of Defense, none of the Boko Haram suspects held at Kuje jail in Abuja were discovered after the attack on the buildings on Tuesday night.

High-profile It is believed that during the invasion of the prison on Tuesday night, suspects from Boko Haram and bandits escaped. The attack started around 10:30 p.m., the minister told reporters after visiting the site to assess it. We are currently tracking them to see the types of prisoners they have released after they entered the prison in large numbers and released some of the prisoners.

We will shortly provide you with the accurate amount of the prisoners who were abducted. In addition, we are looking into what we can do to guarantee that all eluded persons are brought back.

Over 600 prisoners have fled from the facility, which has 994 inmates. Many individuals have been recaptured and returned to the jail. Maybe more will have been apprehended and brought back by the end of the day.

I believe that everything is in order. From the records, we deduce that those who came to perform this activity are members of a particular organization. Given that we have a sizable number of Boko Haram suspects in custody and are currently unable to find any of them, it seems likely that they are Boko Haram members. There may be 64 of them in the prison, but none are there right now.
