isolation centre in Nasarawa State.
Nasarawa State Governor, Abdullahi Sule who confirmed the
development during a press briefing on Tuesday said five of the arrested
persons escaped into the bush after their vehicle stopped in the Forest Village
area, a boundary between the state and Nasarawa.
He said they were on their way to Jos, Plateau State.
He added that “13 others, who claimed to come from Nasarawa
State, are on their way back to Lafia, Nasarawa State capital, where they will
go into isolation on their arrival.”

persons returning to the State.
