Hundreds Of Nigerian Prisoners To Be Sent Home From UK by hustla242: 10:12am On Oct 15, 2013
Hundreds of Nigerian criminals will be sent home to serve out prison sentences under a deal set to be struck by ministers within weeks.

Talks are continuing into reaching a compulsory prisoner transfer agreement, which could see more than half of the 500 criminals from Nigeria currently in UK jails repatriated.


Prisons minister Jeremy Wright told MailOnline how 'more foreign prisoners must serve their sentences in their own countries'.

I guess the question now is, is there enough space in Nigerian prisons to accomodate these criminals?

Our prisons are already overcrowded. Not suggesting that they should set them free tho but I dnt know if the prison reforms we have been hearing about has been put in place.
