The Federal Government have begun uploading the data of 60 terrorists and other criminals to the International Criminal Police Organization database.

The terrorists and the other criminals were among those who escaped when a terrorist group, the Islamic State of West African Province, bombed the Kuje Correctional Centre on Tuesday night.

The Spokesman, Nigeria Correctional Service, Umar Abubakar, who confirmed this to The PUNCH on Thursday, disclosed that the names, pictures and other data of the inmates have been circulated to other security agencies.

Amongst the over 60 boko haram terrorists on the list include; Yasir Salihu aka Dan Birni, an avowed Boko Haram member who confessed to killing influential Kaduna cleric, Sheikh Auwal Albani, on the order of the late Boko Haram leader, Abubakar Shekau.

Also on the list is Mustapha Umar, a man who was convicted and sentenced to life in prison by a Federal High Court in 2013 for bombing the Kaduna office of This Day newspapers amongst others.
