PORT HARCOURT—Rivers State chapter of Civil
Liberties Organisation, CLO, Wednesday alleged
that some Boko Haram detainees had been
transferred to the prison in Port Harcourt.

Publicity/Research Secretary of the rights body,
Livingstone Wechie, in a statement, said that
though there was no official comment from any of
the security agencies, a top security source within
the prison service disclosed the development to
the organisation.

“Although the authorities may deny and make this
development an unfounded secret, there is no
basis for this action by the authorities involved,”
he said.

He expressed worry that the development could
impact negatively on the area if the situation was
not well managed.

“Ordinarily, terrorists’ inmates should be kept in
isolated maximum facilities because keeping them
with other ordinary criminals will give them room
to indoctrinate other inmates particularly since the
Port Harcourt prison is already over congested,”
he added.

No official of the Nigeria Prison Service was ready
to comment on the allegation, following
Vanguard’s inquiry.

Meantime, spokesman of Governor Nyesom Wike,
Mr Opubo Nko-Tariah, said that the state
government was not aware of the alleged
development.

“I can’t attest to the veracity of the story. However,
should there be an ounce of truth in the transfer
story, the Rivers State Government should know so
that adequate measures can be put in place in
partnership with the Federal Government. Although
the prisons belong to the Federal Government, the
state government will be blamed for any havoc
wreaked on residents if and when there is a jail
break,” he said.

He wondered why the prisoners would be
transferred to the state when Port Harcourt does
not have a heavily fortified prison for such
inmates.

Buhari exporting boko haram since may 29th

why dem dey even transfer them come south?

Weda south oo, abi north ooo. Na still Nigeria. Baaba keep transferring them

Wow! That was how Anambra's began and later turned out to be very true and real.

K

this daura dullllard is getting out of hand

Why won't Buhari leave these bokoharam in the north where they thrive? Why try SPREAD it to the south ? This attitude really makes Buhari the real terrorist. El Rufai once said so

he's only trying to reduce there concentration up north by diffusing them around the country.


but what happened to all the northern states now? don't they have prisons

was this also approved during GEJ's regime?

Ye-ye dey smell o!

Moderator should summarily arrest thus guy for having nothing to say -

All markets in Enugu metropolis is going to be on total lockdown tomorrow, in protest against FG alleged plans to transport Boko haram prisoners to Enugu prison.

That is the news in Enugu o!

this is excellent news

The rate at which buhari is going,he would soon plunge the entire country into crisis,and end up being booted out. There are 19 northern states but boko haram prisoners aren't being transferred there. Instead,they are being brought to the south-south and south-east. There is more to this;it's not just a coincidence.

ERODEDEAST:
If this News is true then I tend to agree with FFK that,
“There are many other grave consequences which the Nigerian people will witness, in a most harrowing and frightful manner, in the next few months and years. May God deliver our people and our nation and may we learn to make the right choices.”



Boo.hari is a Certified Illiterate Terrorist


Boo.hari as a president of Nigeria is a disaster to Africa - Ex US envoy.

Boo.hari has no solution to Nigeria's Problem - Balarebe Musa.

[/s]
If Buhari has no solution to Nigeria's problems according to Balarebe Musa, then Musa should provide Nigerians with solutions to our current problems...talk is cheap. After surviving 16 years of PDP misrule, I have no reason to reject the new administration after barely 2 months in power.

I believe President Buhari will deliver.

Hmmm

I yaff heard you, Why skipping the obvious. Assuming Boo.hari 150 Cows were shared to 3 different Ranches, suddenly there was an outbreak of Bloat in only one of the ranches so the best treatment Boo.hari could give is to cull the affected cows and share them evenly to the two (2) other Ranches abi, Hypocrites [s]

Buhari exporting boko haram since may 29th

Fear of boko haram is the beginning of wisdom

This move by the President is part of islamic agenda in islamizing Nigeria but the gate of hell can never prevail. The wisdom of God surely superintend that of mere mortal. Christians,though the weapon of our warfare are not carnal but lets be spiritually vigilant such that they will not be a repeat of the medieval tragedy that truncated the spread of the gospel of Christ and wasted virtually all the most treasured sacred and secular literatures of those days,especially in the Middle-East and the North African region.
