Ikoyi "Prison Break". Let Me Tell You The Truth. by SYDbeatz(m): 7:18pm On Nov 01, 2020
*IKOYI "PRISON BREAK"*

*MR RAUF, LET ME TELL YOU THE TRUTH*

Last week’s Ikoyi *"prison break"* was not a premeditated jailbreak. *It was prompted by corruption on the part of Ikoyi Prison officials, exacerbated by pent-up tension among inmates, over the burning of the Igbosere court and sealed by some other inmates’ desperation to escape from the chaos they’d caused..*

How it happened. A warder popularly known as *"Pastor"*(Short dark egun man) had seized a phone from an inmate in *D Ward.* One account has it that *'‘Pastor’'*, who is also the Yard Master, extorted the inmate but refused to release the phone. Another is that *'‘Pastor’'* seized the phone and told the inmate who owned it to settle him, else his cell would be changed. Whichever was the case, an inmate’s phone was seized and *'‘Pastor’'* wanted money (or more money) to release it. I know for a fact that even though inmates are prohibited from owning phones, warders smuggle phones in for them. For a fee, of course. At times, the warders even buy the phones themselves then resell to inmates at exorbitant rates. *( A story for another day)*

Meanwhile, inmates were still enraged by the burning of Igbosere High Court the previous day. Their thinking was that as a consequence, their trials would be delayed by months, since all legal records in that court was burnt. They were tensed up, hence their bellicose response upon hearing of *"pastor's"* intended Extortion.

In the process, *'‘Pastor’'* slapped an inmate, the inmate returned the slap. Some prison warders intervened, but the inmate had started kicking *'‘Pastor’'*. Other inmates joined. The environment soon became so raucous that *'‘Pastor’'* fled to Records office. Soon, inmates were crowding out and beating the warders.

While some of them went after *'‘Pastor’'*, the Deputy Controller of Prison (DCP) *( TALL, GENTLE MAN WITH TRIBAL MARKS)* who doubles as the Officer in Charge of Ikoyi Prison, tried to calm others down. Then One inmate confronted the prison '‘Chief Warder’' *(TALL FIERCELY LOOKING FAT MAN)* who directly oversees inmates, saying *"the whole prison would have been burnt down were it not for the DCP who had been “nice” to them."*
"Chief" slapped the inmate, the inmate retaliated! For context, the average warder-inmate relationship in Ikoyi is a master-slave one; an inmate slapping a warder is like a security guard slapping an Aliko Dangote. The end result was always going to be catastrophic.

By this point, inmates were already beating some warders and throwing stones at them. Meanwhile, Chief sells kerosene to Inmates *(This is surely illegal, because they hide it when there's an external visit)* stored behind the office leading to his. The inmate that was slapped by Chief got angry, picked a keg of kerosene, opened it and threw it into the Records Office. Other inmates lit a fire. The first place burnt down by the irate inmates was the Records office. They inmates couldn't have Gotten fuel to burn the Records office, if not for the *"Help"* of the chief warder. After that, they burnt the school, legal office, E Ward, Yard Master’s office and a shop next to WELCOME CELL where odds and ends were sold.

Seeing the damage that had been done, the major actors tried to escape. As expected, some others tried to profit from it by attempting a jailbreak. The situation was quelled after the DCP called for armed reinforcements. Although the prison has been silent on the deaths, four separate sources, including one in government, have spoken about multiple deaths. While the government source refused to disclose the number, instead concentrating on his concerns about the *cover-up,* the other three put the casualty toll at “over 50”, “53” and “56” respectively. Indeed, the last two said the casualty toll could even be a lot more, as their figures were based only on the bodies they had personally sighted.

The ARMED SQUAD whom we all saw outside in a Circulated viral video during the supposed jail break eventually went inside after the situation had become more calm and they started shooting. On the instructions of the Aggrieved *"Chief Warder"*, the armed squad went after inmate whom they had personal beefs with to kill them in their cells. Over 30 people killed in the *GENERAL* Cells and a few others killed In the *PRIVILEGED* cells. Summarily, no one was killed during the fake *Jail break*, innocent lives of awaiting trial Persons (ATM) were lost after the tensive situation had been quelled. Let me not forget to add that a lot of the inmates also suffered various degree of injuries and GSWs...

*Whatever the Prison Authority in Ikoyi is trying to hide will soon be made Open.*
