According to Fisayo, it is impossible for hoodlums or protesters to break into a prison to set prisoners free without the tacit support of prison security.

Following the jailbreak in Edo State leading to the freedom of inmates, Under-cover journalist, Fisayo Soyombo who once lived inside a prison cell as an inmate during an investigation in 2019 has disclosed that it is impossible for a hoodlum or an unarmed protester to do so without the disguised involvement of prison authorities.
According to Fisayo, today's occurence in Edo State is impossible without the tacit support of prison security.
Reacting to the jailbreak via his Twitter handle, Fisayo wrote;
''As someone who lived eight days in prison as an inmate during an undercover investigation, I can tell you that it is NOT possible for unarmed protesters or hoodlums to break into a prison in Edo State or elsewhere and set inmates free. Ko possible, sir.
No largescale jailbreak can succeed without: (i) the active connivance of prison insiders, (ii) the tacit support of prison security or (iii) the disguised involvement of prison authorities. When you're ready to tell us the truth -- or if you ever will -- we'll be here, waiting.''
