Twenty five prisoners from the three prisons in Anambra state have regained their freedom as well as received empowerment to the tune of one million naira each from the state government. Governor Willie Obiano announced the prerogative of mercy and the empowerment on the prisoners serving different jail terms in Awka, Onitsha and Nnewi prisons as part of activities marking the nation’s fifty fifth Independence Anniversary and as a measure of hope to them to be able to re-integrate into the society and fend for themselves. At a personal visit to Awka Prisons where he meets the five lucky inmates, it was a scene of overflowing emotion as the prisoners were in tears appreciating the gesture and pledged to lead a life worthy of emulation as they reunite with their families and the larger society. The Attorney General and Anambra State Commissioner for Justice who called on the governor to perform the function of amnesty said it was the first time a sitting governor would be supervising the handing over of pardon on prisoners in the state. The governor expressed his joy for performing the function that would give hope and bring life to the beneficiaries. The governor signed the prison’s visitors register and had a group photograph with the released prisoners alongside other dignitaries. Sixteen prisoners were released in Onitsha Prisons while four would regain their freedom in Nnewi prisons. http://www.channelstv.com/2015/10/02/55th-anniversary-obiano-grants-prisoners-freedom-gives-1-million-each/ |

But, this doesn't make sense at all. So, it's now profitable to commit crime? |

Sealeddeal:peter obi is the worst thing to happen to anambra state. Though I don't support the approach but its not entirely bad, afterall pope and obama visited prisons in the USA and it was highly celebrated. What if those guys were wrongly imprisoned? |

AtlanticBreeze: And you instantly assumed he is Obi's fan. For your information,sealdeal is a confused individual who wan an Ifeanyi Uba who can't run a football club to govern Anambra. |
| Re: 55th Anniversary: Obiano Grants Prisoners Freedom, Gives 1 Million Each by OdenigboAroli(m): 3:59pm On Oct 02, 2015 |
And as for the Peter Obi bashing you are in the very tiny minority...hehe |

AtlanticBreeze:Uneccessary comparison. Obiano is neither Obama nor Pope.. Pope and Obama didn't give money to convicted inmates.. Obiano shouldnt have given them money.. |

If he had given the 25million naira to three youths with one good business plan. In the next 10years, they will have employed 150 people. |

AtlanticBreeze:Obiano is a media propagandist and thats why you think he is doing anything meaningful. i cannot pin-point any meaningful thing he has done with anambra state allocation as well as the power of his office. |

VickJames:Do Naija leaders think this way? Are u sure that they will get this money when most of them don't have bank account. |
| Re: 55th Anniversary: Obiano Grants Prisoners Freedom, Gives 1 Million Each by VickJames(m): 4:20pm On Oct 02, 2015 |
adconline: He should've thought of better ways of empowering them. Like give them job in a security outfit or something. To be collecting market tax. |
