Boko Haram: Bajoga Satellite Prison Reopens 4 Year After Closure

The Controller General of Nigerian Prisons Service (NPS) Jafaru Ahmed has directed the immediate reopening of Bajoga satellite prison in Gombe State Command.

The prison was closed down on 4 November 2014 following an insurgent attack in the town.

During the attack when some public buildings, financial institutions and security posts were touched, the Prison staff had fortified the prison and successfully evacuated all inmates to Gombe and Billiri prisons.

With improved security in the area, the reopening of the satellite prison  followed appeals from Funakaye local Government council and the traditional institutions in the state.
