The minister said that the interface was necessary as more than 90 per cent of the inmates were being held for contravening state laws. This shows two fundamental issue with prison system. The federal government shouldn't be housing state local inmates. The solution to the is to decentralised prisons. The simple solution to that long term is amend constitution by deleting prisons from exclusive list. The short term solution is NASS pass a law saying The FG will no longer hold Non federal inmates by December 31, 2024 for example. This will force states to build their own facilities and reduce fiscal burden on the FG. The second issue is the the difficulty in getting bail in Nigeria. If States could determine their own bail requirements by law or have guidelines for judges we would have so many sitting in jail. The next big solution is offering guilty inmates time served while sitting in jail on trial. Again it reduces fiscal burden and they served their punishment anyway. ps: It's sad Nigeria current statesman like Aregbesola and Buhari aren't very strategic or smart. Since Prisons are in the exclusive list you can just force the responsibility in the states if you please. Use the Majority post in NASS for something useful. This would give leverage to force states to delete prisons from the exclusive list. Yes strong arming is better than slow consensus building and endless meeting in this case. front page: Lalasticlala Mynd44 50 Likes 6 Shares |

Blue3k: How many state Judges monitors their respective state police formations even though it is their constitutional duty to do so monthly to access this same situation. The problem with Nigeria is corruption and the lack of will for the people in position of government to do their job. If state Judges use their power as they should, there are so many cases that shouldn’t have gone to court because these police arrest people without any evidence and that’s where the problem starts. You can’t be looking for solutions at the top of a problem instead of the root. 20 Likes 5 Shares |

“Because the governors must buy into this system for us to do a massive decongestion, especially of Awaiting Trial Inmates. lol if your Boko Haram or Any other violent criminals get released into your street just know the governor approved it. Alot of these guys can be cut a deal by the prosecutors like time served if they admit guilt and be released. Alot of them stayed longer than their max sentence anyway. If it's a misdemeanor maybe see about expunge record who knows. If its state offenses were talking about then the state assemblies will need get involved eventually. 3 Likes |

KaluwisxPRO: I don't know the answer to first question. The second paragraph I would disagree with. Before a case goes to court Department of public prosecution recommends it based on the evidence. If the feel the case is too flimsy they won't take go waste time. Nobody likes losing or wasting their time. Judges throw out cases for lack of evidence but most have sufficient evidence to merit a case. Cases move slow in Nigeria see because their isn't that many many judges for the amount of cases. Texas probably has more judges than all of Lagos and Kano combined

michlins: I agree the constitution was written very illogically. How does on Justify the Existence of state Laws, state courts, state prosecutors but not state prisons. Even the death Row inmates are mainly state offenders. Its all so crazy the federal government is bleeding cash on nonsense. 4 Likes |

Blue3k:state governors will not sign death warrants keeping inmates on federal government bill. Let them take up the bill and see them ensure that flimsy cases don't go to prison. Even police will think twice to arrest someone because you will be forced to prove the case. Bail will eventually become free cause the police will do everything and anything to offload stupid cases 2 Likes |

Blue3k: You’re telling me the majority of those arrested by Sars thrown into Jail have evidence You’ve probably never encountered a police problem before so I won’t want to have an argument with you. Back in the day as a young man, during Christmas period, police goes about raiding people on the streets into their danfos, only those who got immediate cash are let go, the rest you go sleep cell next Monday you go to court, from there to remind for late night movements. I’m talking about real life situations here, Police stations are filled with cases that shouldn’t go to court, Judges don’t know anything about the case except you have money to spend on the Police IPO, the judge will send you to jail for remind with one flimsy excuse from the IPO. 1 Like 1 Share |

Are these people trying to destabilize the country? First releasing terrorists and now criminals who they have clearly not rehabilated, will not support them to get their footing, and have even been more adapted to criminality in the "correctional" facilities. Is there something they are not telling us? |
