Suspected thugs have again attacked the Oko Medium Security Centre in Edo State.
The thugs were said to have freed many inmates in the process.
This is coming some hours after a jailbreak at the correctional centre in Benin City.
There has been an outbreak of violence in Edo State following the EndSARS protests.
A source told SaharaReporters that the thugs, who were in large numbers, also carted away valuables from offices of prison officials.
Meanwhile, the Edo State Government has imposed a 24-hour curfew across the state.
In a statement, Osarodion Ogie, Secretary to the State Government, said the curfew will remain across the state “till further notice”.
Ogie said hoodlums have hijacked the #EndSARS protest and the government would not allow continuous attacks
