Rubbish post. Kanu is living like a king inside there but he will soon be out
Yes, I agree with you, he will be out soon in the next 50years. "Soon" is relative, death of people he has killed directly and indirectly are following him for revenge

How much would remain when the correctional officers cut their shares.

Nigeria self.
Nonsense


There's nothing correctional about the useless prisons in Nigeria

It's better to be a rat than to be a prisoner in Nigeria except you are not really a prisoner

I mean prisoners from poor families that have no connection towards no transparent or justifiable reason why they are in prison
The Nigerian judiciary, executive and legislative systems are all extremely crooked

The police is not helping matters

The economy is doomed


The world is in shambles for a country like Nigeria to exist

Will increasing it improve the feeding conditions of prisoners?
The answer is No. Not until good welfare package is arranged for the prison officers and members of staffs.

You asked them to serve inmates good food with nice protein on top of it, while they could hardly afford same meal. What do you expect? Corruption.

Reward workers well, remunerate well and pay allowances, that is when you have moral justification to fight corruption.

Senate-increases-prisoners-feeding-cost-to-N1000-daily.


EQUIVALENT TO

1, N30,000 per month FOOD ALLOWANCE ONLY FOR PRISONERS

2, N30,000 per month MINIMUM WAGE FOR NIGERIAN WORKERS. AND

3, N30,000 per month MINIMUM PENSIONS FOR NIGERIAN PENSIONERS.

NUMBER ONE IS ALRIGHT BECAUSE THEY'RE PRISONERS.

NUMBERS TWO AND THREE SHOULD BE TRIPPLED TO A MINIMUM OF N90,000 per month BECAUSE THEY'RE FREE WORKERS AND PENSIONERS WHO HAVE FAMILIES TO FEED AND CLOTH..

From 750naira to 1000naira?! Nnamdi kanu and other prisoners should be grateful to that Senator Utazi for considering Kanu feeding.

They should also increase the minimum wage.
The minimum wage in the country is long over due, it must be increased, average of 1000 naira a day, if they recognize that 450 or 750 is not enough for people who are housed in prison and increase the cost to 1000 naira what about the people serving you in government facilities faithfully, if you allocate 1000 naira daily for the ones in prison what about the ones that has house rent to pay and children to fee.
What about corpers who risk their lives, transport themselves to their various PPAs, pay rents, buy clothes and many more.

Nigeria minimum wage should be at least 100,000 naira monthly, this is what it means to have an improved life and economy of a nation.

Increasing minimum wage is not the solution, let's reason together.

Immediately they do that it will have multiplier effects, for instance, the traders, artisans etc, will increase their charges simply because they heard that civil servants salaries has been gear up and the increase will be meaningless.

From my own point of view, Government should provide infrastructural facilities e.g. good roads, better transportation package, affordable housing/mortgage plans, loans flexibility, et al.

By doing this, no amount you are collecting will sustain ones. U.S. have a policy of certain category of people not to pay T-fare, etc

Please look more into economics and how business and inflation works, what causes rise in the market prices is not an increase in minimum wage, in Nigeria it's mainly caused by the dollar rate. An average importer who used to buy dollar at 200naira per dollar in black market, suddenly realizes that dollar the dollar is now sold at 600 in the same black market, which is now triple the price what is was will have no choice but to fully reflect this increase in the price of his goods, to be able to make Enough Money to buy again, to remain in business.
This infiltrates the other sects of the economy gradually until it gets to everything in the economy at the end of the day you realize that someone whose salary was 30,000 naira($150 dollars) in 2014 is now paid $50 in 2021 using black market rates respectively at the time.

This is why they had to increase the feeding amount to 1000naira which is less than $2 dollars per day.
Most yam, beans and plantain we eat is not imported yet it Is justifiable if the yam is sold at 300 naira each compared to 50naira it was sold in 2014.

The big question is: people who do not pay house rent or feeding there family is receiving such only on feeding how about those who pay house rents, light and water and other bills e.t.c.
Some are serving in government facilities today faithfully.
they are not supposed to be paid anything less than 100k which is less than $180 dollars at the black market rate.

Check history, when dollars are still less than what it is today the same scenario played out.
We are the problems of ourselves.
