A lot of these Chinese workers in Nigeria are convicts still serving their jail times.

What the Chinese government does is to send convicts who are of good to developing countries like Nigeria to complete their jail times.
Are you saying Nigeria is a prison?

There is a difference between prisoners and ex-convict. While I perfectly understood your view of government trying to integrate ex-con to the society, government can not take such steps for prisoners who are serving their terms. If any government would do that for anyone, it is usually under mutual agreement for the convict who is probably a government asset and they do that by giving the beneficiary a new identify. Understand this and rest. Prisoners and ex-convict are not the same and the topic mentioned prisoners and not ex-convicts.
I see the distinction you are putting between Prisoners & Excons.

But your assertion that, they have to be given a new identity is not correct. Very often Prisoners behind bar for very low offenses and those serving out the last few months or years of their sentences are off-loaded to Companies by the Government.

From what I know, they work at companies local to the Prisons, also there are many prisons who are not put in jail but given some type of sentence that require them to maintain good behavior over a period of time while working.

It would not be far fetched for these local companies to ferry these prisoners abroad for these of work as it would be very cheap.

In any case Osho Baba say he got this information on ‘good authority’ I don’t if any of us have a better insider info to contradict him. He said their will be a Senate hearing, so let’s give him the benefit of a doubt.

@Qasim6
You are mistaken. They are serving their jail time in Nigeria.

@me
How can a prisoner be earning income? Is either the income goes to the prisoner or the company uses them as conduit to take the money out.

Are there no Nigerians of such grades?
