Ok

So sad....and in this same country we have individuals that have starched trillions of public funds resting in banks while many are dying of starvation. God is just too merciful. I can't stand this injustice.

Also there are some with genuine billions sleeping in banks. Money they will surly later die and leave behind yet they can't stretch out a hand of help to others. This world is such an unfair place.

Worse of all, there are innocent individuals in this prison but just because they lack influence or money they will die there- "Nigeria Factor" Some have committed worse crime but are working freely on the street.

May God see those prisoners through. Amen.

This is so unfair, regardless of what put them behind bars

Wickedness everywhere!

I thought 500 naira is budgeted daily for an inmate?

semasir:
Prison Authorities in Ogwashi Uku Prison, Delta State are being accused of negligence which has led to the death of almost 10,000 inmates since 2013 as explained by Ada Mazi.

One Smart Ohuzu, a prisoner awaiting trial, was reported to have died on 25th September owing to the fact that the officers ignored pleas from other inmates to take Smart to the hospital.

The young man was remanded in Prison by a Delta State Magistrate Court and two months while in custody, he has been sick.

In the morning, Smart Ohuzu collapsed and Prison Authorities called on the cell leader to gather ₦5000 from cell mates so they can transport him to Ogwashi Uku General hospital.

The poor prisoners contributed money and some even contributed ₦10 while others contributed ₦50 and they were able to raise a total of ₦3,500 eventually and now left with an outstanding ₦1,500 which then got the prison officers angry and refused to take Smart Ohuzu to hospital.

Inmates who saw Smart Ohuzu on the floor struggling, rush back to the cell and one inmate was said to have given out the ₦1,500 to enable officers take Smart Ohuzu to the Hospital and was later rushed to Ogwashi Uku General hospital after they have collected the money contributed.

Upon getting to the hospital, the doctors treated him and referred them to Federal Medical Center or Okwe General Hospital and complained that they will stop accepting inmates from Ogwashi Uku Prison as they are always bringing inmates for treatment at the point of death.

The officers, instead of taking Smart Ohuzu to the hospital the doctor referred them, with chains on his leg they led him into the Green Maria (Black Maria) and took him back to the prison yard complaining of man-power.

Smart Ohuzu was then chained and left in the cold, struggled and died with tears in his eyes, three hours after he was forcefully brought back into the prison yard.

The inmates could not complain because if they do, they either change their cell or punish them.

A group of Young Nigerians which is made up of ex-Awaiting Trial Prisoners, Behind Bars Intervention, are now demanding that health centers be built in all the prison especially Ogwashi Uku Prison, Delta State and that Minister of Interior and/or the Controller General of Prisons to write/sign and put up a sign post in each prison in Nigeria stating "VISIT IS FREE" just the way they have "Bail Is Free In Police stations and Court amongst other demands.

They however recommended that the top prison officers who uses this prison to enrich themselves and put innocent prisoners to death be sacked and the Minister of Interior/Controller General partner with other stakeholders to decongest the prison, declare Health Emergency in all the Prisons now or Shut down Ogwashi Uku Prison.

If nothing is done, the group has promised to lawfully gather 4,250 families of those in Delta Prison for a Nationwide Peaceful protest and if the allegations are considered false, the mouthpiece for the group, Prince Gwamnishu Harrison asked to be taken to the court.

OUR POLITICAL LEADERS THAT TRUNCATED OUR DEMOCRACY AND ECONOMIC GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT NEEDS TO SMELL THIS KIND OF PRISON.

INSTEAD THEY ARE GIVEN PREFERENTIAL TREATMENTS AND IN MOST CASES THEY EVADE JUSTICE.

Let us learn to respect the Law to avoid jail and prison life.

I remember back in d days gone-bye,u see dt okwash prison ehh,na there u go pray make u enemy go,God forbid

Same with Onitsha Prison oh...if not for catholic missions and other kind hearted charities.inmate would be dieing in numbers...there is gross neglect of images welfare by so called waders..they only work relunctantly when giving bribe..imagine where an inmate will be the one to pay for fuel before he could be taking to court and if he do not pay..he stays back in the cell and miss his date court..he may spend more than a year before he gets another date court thats if he is lucky.more of the reason why prison is congested is due to poor attitude of prison staff to the walfare of imate..the officers are selfish, corrupt and greedy ..the feed fat on the poor imates..they expect to be bribed or receive bribe before they can give any assistance to inmates which is part of their job to do.what happened at ogwashi is an everyday occurance in all prison throught Nigeria respectably in the southeast and south south .they are simply heartless..Waders are Wicked..Tufiakwa

I am torched.
Inside world, is a soft hell in Nigeria.

Sigh... Just look at what they turned human beings to... Even pensioners are being owed since 2015.

Tell me how Delta State is not eternally cursed... Tueh!!!

SHITHOLE..

post=82615750:

This is nothing short of wickedness.
