IPOB Members On Trial Overstretching Prison Facilities —NPS by HungerBAD(op): 6:25am On Oct 27, 2017

By Anayo Okoli

UMUAHIA—THE authorities of Nigeria Prisons Services, NPS, have said the large number of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, members clamped in prisons in its Zone E area of operation has further stretched the already challenging logistics in the prisons.

Over 100 IPOB members are currently remanded in various prisons in the zone from where they go to court to face trial following the clash with soldiers who invaded the home of their leader, Nnamdi Kanu, last month.

According to Assistant Comptroller General in charge of Zone E, comprising of Abia, Akwa Ibom, Cross River, Bayelsa, Imo and Rivers, with headquarters in Owerri, Mr. Alloy Uchenwa, members of IPOB being remanded in the prisons have further stretched the inadequate facilities in the prisons.

Uchenwa, who spoke to journalists, yesterday, in Umuahia, after meeting with the officers of the Abia State Command, said: “It was a miracle yesterday how we were able to convey 100 IPOB members to court.

Uchenwa, who explained that he was in Abia State as part of his routine inspection of facilities in commands under his zone, identified inadequate logistics as one of the major challenges of the prisons and appealed to individuals, organisations and governments to come to the assistance of the zone.

The Assistant Comptroller-General also identified prison congestion as another challenge confronting the service, saying a situation where “more than 90 per cent of inmates are awaiting trial was worrisome.”

He called for the building of more prison yards to ease the challenge of overcrowding, adding that a situation where cells for 500 are being occupied by 1,000 inmates was not conducive.

Uchenwa said he had raised the issue of prison congestion with Abia State Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Chief Umeh Kalu (SAN), who he said promised to do something.

He commended the leadership of Abia prison command for the reforms being carried out, especially effort to enroll inmates in classes, which will enable them to write West African School Certificate Examinations, WASCE, while some are taking courses in National Open University of Nigeria, NOUN.

The prison comptroller should allow this miscreants smell their ass and cramp them all in small cells so that whenever they gain freedom they will Usain Bolt at the mention of IPOB.

Meanwhile their god Nnamdi Kanu is somewhere right now enjoying breakfast with his family while his brainwashed miscreants languish in prison.

Ndi Iberibe!

The Jihardist should free more AK47 carrying Boko Haram Islamic faithfuls, so he can have space in prisons for the flag waving IPOB terrorists.

This will make sense for every average Nigerian.

The judicial system in the country has failed and instead of putting reforms in place to speed up the process of hearing cases and passing judgement what is being suggested is to build more prisons. Jesus! How stupid can people be really? Mind you,because of this terrible situation you find people in prison who would have been discharged,still awaiting trial for YEARS! Too bad!

More IPOB members should just voluntarily surrender and insist on being arrested and tried, after properly documenting themselves. I reckon about 20,000 more is enough to cause serious DDOS attack on prison facilities in SouthEast/South South. A 100,000 arrested IPOB members will shut down prison services in Nigeria.

IPOB need to seize the opportunity presented by this disclosure.

How convenient, so the numerous Boko Haram members they claimed to have arrested over the past have not stretched prison facilities it is this few ipob members that are are now becoming a nuisance Abi?

inbtw, if they marauding herdsmen laying waste of innocent citizens over the country and leaving behind a body count in its wake are been arrested daily, then they federal government would probably have been exporting prisoners like crude oil to Panama.
