Governor Peter Obi of Anambra on Wednesday granted amnesty to 21 prisoners drawn from Awka, Onitsha, Aguata and Enugu prisons, as part of activities to mark the Democracy Day.

This is contained in a statement signed in Awka by the governor’s Chief Press Secretary, Mike Udah.

According to the statement, the exercise was in compliance with the constitutional powers of the governor.

The statement noted that three inmates: Chidiebele Okolisa, Nafiu Mohammed and Kenechukwu Nwobodo, were released from Awka Prison; while Chibuzo Ekweizu and Chukwudi Okonkwo were released from Aguata Prison.

“The beneficiaries from Onitsha Prison are Mmaduabuchi Ojimba, Dick Iboro, Ikechukwu Nnamani, Amaechi Oloh, Chukwunonso Igbomalu, Sunday Udezulu and Ibrahim Ahmed.

“Other lucky ones from Onitsha Prison are Chinedum Ephraim, Adebayo Damilare, Christian Okeke, Julius Nweke, Sundy Ogugua, Chijioke Oforkalu, Nnamdi Nwabunwanne and Donatus Obioha.

The statement said that from Enugu Prison, Kennedy Okechukwu Okolonta and Onyeka Abugu had their terms reduced to 21 years from life imprisonment from the dates of their sentences, while Nnenna Obi from the same (Enugu) prison was also released.

What do u mean by abuse of amnesty?
Do u do they offences or why they were imprisoned in the first place.
Why not be happy for once,if not for them then for their various families or do u think it has been easy for these families all this while?

I don't see what difference the bolded makes. 21 years seems like a lifetime to me. I can't even spend a year in a prison.

Now more than ever before i have come to realize that alot of Nigerians have been politically brainwashed. This was the same thing president Jonathan did giving amnesty to a criminal and the news was all around with lots of people throwing insults at him now a governor just the same thing and people are here saying he is good, its a nice thing. Let us try not to be partial in our dealings and endeavours.

lets put sentiments aside bro, this issue of amnesty in nigeria is becoming worrisome. The other day it was alameiyeseigha, now its 21 prisoners. Are u going to tell me that among those 21 there'll be no robbers, rapists or even murderers? Instead of doing something worthwhile & benefitial to their constituencies, these clueless politians are busy overturning the hardwork of the judiciary. Who knows, tomorrow it may be clifford orji or sergeant rogers being granted amnesty!

The Joystick in question is a translated censored word for DIICK, which the moderators censored for a reason best known to them.My own understanding of the topic.

no wonder your user name is Madam Ashawo. Didn't you see that the pardoned criminals or inmates cuts across every tribe in Nigeria?Joystick Iboro is Efik, Adebayo is Yoruba,and the other Hausa guys. Read and understand what forgiveness means. If you were in Peter Obi's shoe, I can bet my life that you would never have pardoned an Igbo man. Your charcoal darkened stone heart will only lead you to destruction. Ask Boko Haram what their actions had brought to them and place yourself in their position in the coming years. You can still repent if you want to be forgiven. Eeeeediot
