I posted a story here about My Dad Among The Escapees Of Owerri Custodial Centre https://www.nairaland.com/6505030/dad-not-among-escapees-owerri
After the prison break his court case has not being had, after many months a date was announce for the continuous trial. After the judge heard about how he return back to the prison after they ask them to go. She granted him bail of 200,000 with a surety that pays tax. The other person who was bribe to lie against him but refuse and they later accuse him of being part of the murder ran away during the prison break, he would have be among this victory news.

I thank everyone for their encouragement and to those who sent me mails to know about the update. Thanks every one.
He is currently taking treatment in Abuja with his daughter and was opportune to celebrate his grandson 1 year birthday last week.

Glory be to God.

Wow! This is good news! I remember your thread! Your ordeal was very disheartening. Here was my comment on it: https://www.nairaland.com/6505030/dad-not-among-escapees-owerri#100766226

Indeed, we are all products of our decisions. Really happy for y'all.

Eiya,all the best.

Congratulations and happy freedom regaining to your dad.
It's indeed a testimony, so many people are languishing in prison for sins they didn't commit.
Some will not even make it alive to the day of freedom.
While some will be wrongfully convicted.
Let me use your father as a point of contact to those who are being held for crimes they did not commit, may divine intervention happen for them to reunite with their families again, Amen.

Congrats.
But, is Nigeria still a country?

In a country that respect it's citizen, they would have compensated him very well.... It's so sad Nigeria is a backward country.


Thank God for your dad....

Congratulations. I am very happy for your family.
We praise God

Wow...so happy for you and your family op.

May his freedom be permanent and the beginning of new things in his life.

Prison time ain't funny at all particularly for the innocent held up and awaiting trial. The trauma is too terrible to even imagine.

Thank God for answered prayers. Welcome home sir

Only in Nigeria will you be on awaiting trial for 10 years, thereafter they'll find u innocent ! Still grant u bail with monetary condition instead of compensating you for your time wasted ! I pray your Dad find strength to forgive the accusers and moreso please you'll all have to be more prayerful and cautius than ever! The people that sent him there won't be happy seeing him out! They won't relent ! That's black people only area of specialisation! Congratulations bro! I'm sure the lady in picture was the little girl he left behind ! He came back as a grandfather lol

Holly Gram thanks b to Jah. WTF MAN

Congrats Op, thank God for social media

Congrats

Congratulations man

Congratulations to you and your family. These are the kind of news we want to be seeing.

ThankGod congratulations

Hmmmmm
Na God oo.
Eight years in a Nigerian prison for an offence he didn't commit.
Thank God for his freedom.
I wish there could be some kind of compensation for cases like this.
I mean how can someone be locked up for 8 horrible years when he's supposed to have moved his life from G to P?
In sister Ekwitos' voice: it didn't right na.

Happy for your family,,,,,this is great news

Ha! The Nigerian justice system is the worst globally. Congrats to him.

if found not guilty in the end, he should sue the appropriate authority for defamation to the tune if billions of naira

Bail doesn't mean he's been acquitted... May God perfect everything.

Congrats to your family
