Governor of Kano state, Dr Abdullahi Umar Ganduje OFR, on Friday, as part of activities marking Eid el Kabir celebrations, visited Kano Central Prison and Goron Dutse Prison to release 200 and 150 from the 2 prisons respectfully.

It will be recalled that Ganduje during the Eid El Fitr celebrations 2 months ago directed that 500 prisoners be carefully selected for immediate release.

This is the 1st time in Nigeria, a governor is pardoning these much number up to 500, at the same time, which cuts across all categories of prisoners in the state. While few of those condemned to death and who are serving life imprisonment had their sentences reviewed downwards.

In his remarks, Governor Ganduje said this gesture is to enable the released inmates to start a new life. He also hoped that they will be law abiding and engage themselves in conducts that will be productive to them and their families.

The representative of the honorable minister of Interior, Alhaji Ado Abdullahi, expressed his delight to the governor for his unprecedented gesture. He added that in the records of the ministry, no governor has released half of what Governor Ganduje did, talkless of releasing 500 prisoners at once.

The released inmates were also given N5,000 cash each to assist them to return back to their homes in various destinations.

Criminals fall on kano.

Releasing his kingpin on contract

Always deciving the gullibl masses thundr fire devil, i can bet my 2 balls no rich man pikin in dat prison. Mttscheeww

He also hoped that they will be law abiding and engage themselves in conducts that will be productive to them and their families.

This is why we are always getting it wrong in this country, what does hope got to do with a criminal? Any measures to assess them ? Anyone going to monitor them after their release ? By the way, I didn't know a governor can pardon criminals. Imagine seeing the slayer of your relatives released just because the governor has hopes.

take cover!!...some animals has bn let loose!...

He just released another set of wildlife into the environment

Neither do I condemn thee, please go and sin no more

Yeeh gbese! Another Osama bin ladin and Aboubaka alzakawi has been releaseed

You guys should be thinking with your brains na.... Occasionally, Government, in its magnanimity releases prisoners whose offences are not weighty and it is obtainable anywhere in the world.

Why do you like exposing your illiteracy huh?

lol y did u say that

The Governor haven't done wrong afterall, it happens everywhere not because you have freedom to type trash on Nairaland makes you a saint, there are so many criminals moving around freely in the society and at the same time there are so many innocent souls in Prison.

Some of you who are blaming the Governor are guilty of one crime or the other, it's just that you have not been caught yet
so make ona use ona brain, please let love lead
