I don't give a Bleep. I disowned him already. A friend who his mother got killed because of him. He was a member of secret cult...Dem wan come kill am for their house, he escaped but his mom couldn't. The poor woman was murdered in cold blood in place of her son. This happened way before I knew him and we found out when he stole. A friend that stole my favourite Jean, cap, and shirts knowingly I didn't have more than 2 jeans. Is that a good friend. A friend that stay late outside and drink to stupor meanwhile, I don't take alcohol and 8pm, I'm Already in my house, a friend that disappears when he gets his salary but comes home once I had exhausted it then I ll start feeding him when he's back. All these I never complained for once. I rather advice him. Even as we speaks, non of his family has visited him in the prison. The last time I visited him, you needed to see the close markings the warder gave us. I am easy going and a struggling man. Make somebody no go send me to jail or early grave.
Don't let anyone guilt-trip you. You're doing the right thing.

No and yes, depending on the level of security or offence.

But you can go and have first-hand experience, if you really want to know.

Prisons all over the world are one of the most corrupt organisation. You can get anything you want as long as you have the funds to finance it. Phone, special cell/ supply of weed, prostitute. So yes phones are not officially allowed but if you grease the right palm you will have one..

I think he was awaiting trial in Ikoyi prisons then. like I said, my dad was handling his case, as in he was in charge of taking his case to court so he can be attended to in time cos most people die awaiting trial.

So maybe he was later jailed in abakiliki.

Me I was still small then but I know yaradua was in Ikoyi remands at some point.

a guy was released after serving his term for stealing a motorbike and was re arrested after two weeks because a phone he bought while in prison was linked to a robbery, the question is how was he able to buy a phone while in prison?

I support you fully bro, the best way now is to always be paranoid, be extremely careful of the guy too, when he is outta jail he might try to get back at you, cos he might be feeling you abandoned him

Re: Does Nigeria Prison Allow Prisoners To Use Phones? by tomju(m): 11:39am On Aug 26, 2019
Sometimes when I read certain comments on post here I simply laugh. I laugh because of the ignorance of certain people. Someone commented about prisons.."I haven't been there o? Of course, you haven't but do you know why people go there?
1. The issue of phones in prison. Phones ate "not allowed" in prisons. Do the inmate have and use phones? Yes.
2. How did they get it? Ask google.
3. Cigarettes is allowed. Weed is not. Do the inmates smoke weed? Yes. How did it get in? Ask google.
4. What can take someone to prison? Many reasons. Eg. Diplomatic OPG of Wazobia FM spent a night in Ikoyi prison. His offence? He was urinating in a gutter by Lekki toll owned by LCC...he was arrested!
5. The law in Nigeria (Lagos) is that every body taken to court has a right for bail. However in Lagos state bail is a process that might not be completed same day! Hence, you will be remanded in Prison pending your bail perfection. Ask Naira Marley he will tell you what went down.
6. Sanitation defaulters are always arrested by KAI and taken to the prison. Loads of "innocent" people are there in prison. Some wrongly accused, others no credible evidence against them to prosecute them.
7. Our Judiciary processes is slow. Many people shouldn't have even gone into jail but the faulty processes makes testing prison inevitable.
8. If you run away from your friend because he landed in prison especially when he is innocent, you are a bad friend. Everyone alive deserves a second chance! Even the dead deserves another chance to live. Traffic offences the take someone to a jail.
9. Seriously, corrupt prison officials traffic in phones, weed etc and help the inmates to have it. Some inmates use their own network via visits of family members to bring Phone, weed, and other restricted items.
10. Anyone can be remanded in prison. I have seen a man remanded in Ikoyi prison for "raping" his wife!
11. Another remanded because of murder! How did it happen? He was sick so he took off duty. His colleague from work visited him to console him..before he left, he politely requested to use his phone and he was out of credit. The guy obliged. The visitor made a call to his friend. Apparently he was to travel with the said friend next day to Benin. He just said.." how far bros...Na Osas dey talk. Okay. Tomorrow ba...what time? Okay. I go come. And left the guys house.
Next day, this Osas escorted one man who Benin, only for him and that friend he called to kill the owner of the car and took the car. They sold it. Few days later, Police unravel it. A decomposed body of the man was found smelling in a Bush path to a farm. In his pocket was his phone. It was plugged in a charger by the police and last call list retrieved. It showed the boys number who was sick calling this owner of car, ....it was that confirmation Osas had call whether he will still use his services as a driver to Benin. That was how the boy was arrested and remanded in prison. All his pleas that he didn't make any call to this man fell on deaf ears.
Eventually, a human rights lawyer came in and investigated the matter along with the police, only to discover that it was the call his friend made from his phone, while he was sick that landed him in trouble. The question was, where is that his friend Osas? A manhunt was launched until Osas was arrested in a hotel ...story for another day. Osas and the other guy that assisted him to kill the car owner where also remanded along with the boy initially arrested. The charge was modified. The boy was released as "witness" while Osas and his accomplice stood trial for murder. They where jailed for life! The boy discharged and acquitted.
So you that is saying I've never been there o? Do you lend people your phone to make calls? It can also be you.
Stay guided.

My brother, you owe no wannabe criminals any explanation. You've done no wrong by refusing to associate with a criminal serving his term. There are cases where organised crimes are coordinated from the prison. Friendship is not by force as recognised in Nigerian Constitution.

Truth.

Most of the low-life criminals detained at Prisons over petty crime end up running errands for hardened criminals on release.

The fear of being implicated in a more vicious crime after release if they don't run errands for the hardened detainees is why some of these petty criminals get sucked deeper into crime.

The hardened criminal boss can get any of his arrested affiliates to implicate one of these petty criminals.

The singular rule in Prisons worldwide is never to disclose information about yourself. Even your name can be used to glean information for blackmail. Deactivate or get someone to do it for you all SM accounts.

Nigerian Prisons are underrated in terms of organized crime links to the outside.

It's not all inside life things
