Nigerian Prisons are Worse Than Hell Fire! - Inmates Say by haruchad12: 2:25pm On Aug 11, 2022 |
Nigerian Prisons are worse than "Hell Fire" - Awaiting trial inmates lament "Hellish" experiences in Nigerian Prisons. "We're not murderers or killers, just a little quarrel or misunderstanding with someone and they'll have you thrown into jail and the Police are only after money, they don't take time to ensure the accused is innocent or not! - Jackson (Badagry Prison) Is the Police really your friend? Awaiting trial inmates lament being treated worse than Goats in the " extremely over congested" awaiting trials cells in Nigerian Prisons. "The last time I inspected the Prisons, what I saw was unspeakable. Even if GOATS/CHICKENS were allowed to sleep or exist in such inhumane conditions, they could die of asphyxiation. Prisons record deaths on a regular, most are from the Awaiting Trials section of the Prisons. One could die of bad health care, or maltreatment by Thugs assigned to sub-manage the cells in the Prisons. The awaiting trials inmates hardly eat well, they live at the mercy of co-inmates who capitalize on their office to extort money and do so many unspeakable things to the inmates. - Anonymous Human Rights agent who spied on various Prisons across Nigeria and Africa. Nigerian Prisons are understaffed. Awaiting Trial inmates are in a worse situation than actual convicts. More deaths are recorded at the awaiting trials section than at the main Prison for convicts. It is not supposed to be so: - Correctional Experts explain A correctional facility is designed to help rehabilitate recalcitrants and deviant individuals, when such facilities are neglected, understaffed and left to the wrong hands, it becomes a place where recalcitrants and deviants transform into more hardened/heartless criminals. Solutions: The Government and Responsible agencies should not pay lip service to the worse than hellish state of Nigerian Prisons. (1.) More experts should be employed and deployed to manage the situation, (2.) Awaiting Trials Cells should be constructed at separate locations from actual Prisons for convicted criminals. Experts recommend that awaiting trials inmates should occupy facilities that are as large as Stadiums not just a little stretch of land where humans can die of asphyxiation or health complications. Money is not everything. We should have value for human life, a sinner can repent and become a world changer. The Likes of Joseph of Israel (Son of Jacob), Dr Nelson Mandela, Malcolm X, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo etc all did time in Prison before rising to the top. Nigerian Prisons are in a worse state than hell fire, innocent people die before they stand a chance of fair trials, a lot need to be done by Ministers concerned. We call for volunteers and voluntary advocacy for inmates who are trapped in detention because they have no means of advocacy. Thanks! Published by Anonymous Human Rights Agency.

The problem is, if you a regular gentleman coat and tie office worker are remanded in prison custody for investigation of simple office fraud or domestic violence, you will be put in the same cage to share with suspected armed robbers, area boys, thugs, kidnappers and killers ❗️❗️ You will use a bucket in one corner to piss or siht. I knew what a friend whose secretary stole company customers' money suffered when they were under investigation. They put him in this type of cell with hardened criminals, who had a "head of cell" that he must show allegiance and pay tributary to. Over 20 people in a cell of not more than 15 X15 feet❗️❗️ The Igbo secretary confessed that the boss wasn't aware of her activities, but the customers lawyers were eager to rope the boss in, in order to give them a better chance of recovering the money since it was clear she may not be able to return all the money stolen.❌❌❌☹️☹️☹️ 2 Likes |

It's lip service indeed, as the situation is worse than the writer can express. Something decisive should be done if the political offices in Nigeria are not occupied only by Savages. |

mccloud224: bro, if you got to do time in prison, it certainly shouldnt be a walk in the park, and instead it should be a punishmentthat you dont want to experience ever again, sadly, som jails in Europe are better than the house of some of these convicts...with cells fitted with cable TVs, Playstations and cooking stove to make their wn meals... a prison term is SUPPOSE to be hell fire! |
