I don’t like to remember or talk about my prison experience, the reason why I have been mute about it all through. The life there is sickening! It is an experience that can drain you for life. I’m not talking about prison in general, I’m talking about the the NIGERIAN PRISON. Nigeria is ruined tbh. And I don’t think we would ever get out of this terrible state till death. I am not being negative, I’m a very optimistic person but I have seen it all trust me.

To start with, I think Nigeria is the only country where you are accused for something and without proof or evidence to show, you can be in jail for the rest of your life. If you know you don’t have families to fight for you, please don’t be at the wrong place at the wrong time. Do you know there are teenagers in the Nigerian prison Small boys barely 18 are there for Crimes they did not commit or know absolutely nothing about?

While I was there, there was this boy they always call chin- chin in my cell. I kept wondering why they always called him that and asked him one day - Guy come here, why do they call you chin-chin all the time? guess his reply? “i was hungry and I stole chin chin” that was what brought him to prison. He looked gentle. I was 100% sure the boy is barely 20 years old. My heart was filled with tears but I could not cry so he doesn’t feel too bad. I asked again, are you sure that is what brought you here? He said “nothing else bro” and I was shocked! I guess he does not have people to fight for him, or probably his parents/family are tired of trying. If you know what it cost to get out of prison, you will be shocked! Everything I’m saying to you right now is real. No jokes. There was another young guy, I was particular about these young boys cos I kept wondering what they would have done to be in prison. If you see guys 30-40 years old in there, true or not you will lowkey feel they committed the crime. But not these young boys.

There was this boy, he works for his oga, the oga just came one day and accused him of stealing 200k from his shop. The boy said he barely stayed 3 days in a police cell before he was brought to prison. A boy barely 20 years old! No proper investigation, nothing was done! I thought Prison was for people with serious cases. people who have been convicted for crimes committed with “evidence” or they were caught in the act When did it turn a place for keeping suspects like small boys? You know what made this particular case worse? It is the fact that the parent/ family of the boy wanted to settle out of court. Saying sir, please give us 2 months, we would pay so and so monthly to cover up but the OGA did not agree. It was hurting!!!

The boy, I had to ask him again, Just gist me guy, did you move this money? He was like “bros, we are here together. There is absolutely nothing to be corny about, I did not steal his money.” Argh! I lost hope in Nigeria! This time a tear dropped!

I’m talking about serving you garri with no sugar! Just raw garri in plates. No sugar, water, milk or anything to it. Just raw garri for your chewing pleasure. There are about 3 or 4 foods in the Nigerian prison. Watery beans and dead ass garri. The garri are those ones that blind your eyes over time when you eat them too much. Yes you heard me correctly. At some point, these inmates don’t see properly again, cos too much of this garri.

The other is Eba and egusi, they won’t even make the eba well to start with, talk more of the egusi, it feels like hell fire. Egusi that taste like water. Guys what does water taste like again? It is tasteless!!! And they served rice. Will be honest with you guys, this was the only average food I could eat. Not cos it was sweet, but aspa u can chew rice alone now. Cos the stew was trash. Imagine putting 2-3 spoons of stew inside 2 paint of rice. Yeah that’s what it felt like. It was hell. That was the only food every one eats, cos at least you can eat raw rice and still be fine Let’s leave the food part.

We move to the numbers in the cells. Here is probably the toughest part of it all, if it’s time to sleep, it’s time to cry. Think about this, look at your room; look around very well. It is just you right? Yeah it’s comfort and you don’t want anyone else. Imagine if your room had like 200 people inside it. Just the thought of it alone is sickening right? That’s how the NIGERIAN PRISON is. Imagine them placing like over 200 inmates in one room. Now forget about if They committed the crimes or not. Actualize what I’m saying here. A small room filled with 200+ people. Do you know what it feels like You can’t even fucking breath ! Talkless of sleeping !!!

I fucking paid to sleep under a bed! Yes there are payments in the Nigerian prison. Everytime they bring in a new inmate, the prison guards are angry and its understandable. The marshals of each cell are angry and it is understandable. Too many persons, too little space!

I paid about N10,0000 (10k) to sleep under a bed. Full time bed space cost about 30k or so. I could not afford that at that time. If you would keep inmates, for crimes committed or not! At least put them in a safe and comfortable place. Not like you are leaving them to die. Imagine me paying 10k to sleep under a bed. You should understand what it felt like to sleep in the general place. They sleep on top of each other. Yehhhh! You heard me right. They sleep in chains! People sleep on top of you.

U can’t fucking move your legs! Ah I was ready to go to hell then. Cos earth was trash and the life and stress was not worth it. Guys, there are thousands of inmates who did not do shit and are in jail! The Nigerian police do not do proper investigation, please watch yourselves.

Know your movements and do not stay out too late. You could be the next person for doing absolutely nothing. Nigeria can never be better. Care for yourself and your family till death


In this age of CASHLESS economy, our Military carried N15,492,000 CASH to pay frontline soldiers' food allowance? And the CASH was snatched by Boko Haram?

Pathetic

Hungry people... If truly there was any rape she would have demanded more than this amount.

The Babanriga AKA Agbada affair continues

Read and digest Ubunja threads. Your relationship will last long.

b3llo, what do you have to say to this?

Don't quote me again. Am not gay!!!

Is the VC mentally sound? He should have honoured the decision of the past Dean. He is behaving as if he has the key to their future. Nanzenze

Burna boy is original in his craft. He defined his own genre, Afro fusion. The guy is on top of his game and I hope he make us we his fans proud!!!

Right now he is the only Nigerian artist heading for a Grammy. His lyrics are deep with meaning beyond the words. More international collaboration will sell him to the world.

Oluwa Burna.....

I want to tell a story!

Wisdom is indeed profitable to the smart.
He who has ears let him hear.

When my Immediate past Gov, H.E Ibrahim Hassan Dankwanbo assumed office. He didn't go about prosecuting his predecessor, despite having enough proof to go after him. He settled and set the ball rolling by bringing about development that are laudable till this moment. He didn't witch hunt H.E Danjuma Goje.


I don't know what has happened in Imo State treasury, but HE Emeka Ihedioha should stop prosecuting Sen Owelle Rochas, and face the task ahead of him. Time wait for no one, he should do things that will better the life of the electorate and repose the lost confidence.

If Ihedioha, is not careful he will becoming what he is fighting at the end of his tenure.
Good luck to Imolite...

Politics is becoming a family affair.

Rootprof:
The rumour no even make sense,how can a whole senator Dino be deputy governor ( a position that as been reduced to ceremonial post ) . All I pray for kogi is to be free from bad governance and better future.

The current Deputy Governor of Bauchi State was once a Senator. It's all about Choice.

Wetin I do you bros

Maybe he had a deal that went wrong.

We know the anti corruption war is selective and targeted at the opposition.

I suggest you use the word "Philosophy" rather than "Science"

His marvel movie will be titled "Snow wolf"

Life, and am 5.10 wishing i could be 6 n above.

We don't always get what we want in life.

Try and be doing skin cut also called skull or be using any form of cap. Don't feel depressed accept your fate and move on.

I wish I can gain 4" to my height am 5.5" though but life goes on man.

This is becoming quite sad. Lemme talk briefly of my experience with a friend. "Last December I gave a female friend my phone to help me fix because I travelled for Xmas. So, January this year when I collected the phone I discovered her pix with pant and bra which she snapped." I deleted it and never made mention of it to her. I don't know what is interesting or fun in snapping nude pix? This are the things that find a way of hunting the owners. Ladies and Gents, pls desist from it.

ajealadick:
Yes like to the slapping senator Elisha?

The blunder or shortcomings of one person shouldn't be used to generalise all. we are humans with different minds, reasoning and approach. It's quite early in the morning to start thinking southward. Thank you!

God bless Buhari
Thunder fire any ipobs criminals that quote me

It's too early to peddle rumour.

Igbo presidency will be truncated by cabals. The thought of it alone will scatter APC. Tinubu wants to rule, which from the viewpoint he is favourably indisposible. Let's see who the north will want to foist. I know Atiku is coming with full throttle to scatter APC

Madness

Wizkid don use that goat quench hunger.

What's up with Runtown's pet Tiger? Abi the tiger don swallow him music

OBJ the man with the iron fist. Under his rule he was firmly in control of the affair of this country. You can't stand in his way and get away with it.

This oyibo people dey heartless fa. There is this wierdness in them that makes them have taste for family blood.

Na them... Internet fraudsters.

I won't be surprised one bit if this guy ends up becoming our incoming VP come 2023. I would have said president but he doesn't look like a crowd winner. Abba Kyari, a master at his game.

Interesting, not too young to run in play. I hope 2023 Buhari will hand over to an under 40 president
