*Says Search Has Begun For Cowards Who Released Dangerous
Criminals

Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has described as cowardly Monday’s
attacks on the Imo Police headquarters and the Owerri Correctional
Centre.

Osinbajo, who frowned at the forceful release of prisoners at
the correctional centre by gunmen, noted such action posed threat
to the welfare of citizens.

He said: “When you attack institutions of law and order, it’s
evident that it’s an attack on the welfare and the well-being of
the people especially when you free prisoners who may be dangerous
to the community, dangerous to the people.

“This is particularly atrocious and condemnable. Government has
already taken steps to enhance security here and in the
Correctional Centre and the state generally. That’s a continuous
process”.

The Vice President assured residents of Imo of adequate
security, noting the Federal Government was already consulting with
heads of security agencies to ensure lasting peace.
