BASIC FACTS

  • There was tension at Kuje correctional facility this Monday as inmates went on rampage.
  • The protest was provoked by the death of an inmate in the Kuje facility.
  • The facility was in the news recently following the attack on it by the notorious Islamic State in West Africa terrorists.

WHAT WE KNOW

There was a protest at Kuje correctional facility Abuja early Monday by inmates of the facility.

Clariform Newsdesk gathered that the protest was triggered by the death of an inmate, who was not given prompt medical attention.

The protest would have led to another jailbreak months after a jail break orchestrated by the dreaded Islamic State in West Africa (ISWAP) terrorists.

However, the attempted jail break by some inmates who also attempted to escape from the prison facility amidst the tension were successfully prevented from doing so by the warders.

NOTABLE QUOTE

An eyewitness account amongst the officials said, “The guy has been sick for weeks now, but the situation deteriorated last night and the wardens refused to attend to him until he gave up the ghost around 6:28 am this morning,”

CATCH-UP

Recall that some weeks back, there was a jailbreak at the Kuje correctional facility. The jail break was masterminded by terrorists who planned to release their members held at the facility.

The incident sent panic across the nation as it led to the release of some notorious terrorists in the midst of terrorist threat to attack the FCT.

On record, according to government sources was the escape of at least 64 Boko haram terrorists who were detained in the facility.

A few number of these escapees have been rearrested by the security operatives. Clariform reports that one of the escapees was arrested in Osun State where he was hiding in the house a relation who lives in the state.

COMMENTARY

It’s high time the Nigerian government thought of making the correctional facilities across the country more habitable.

This may appear like a tall order in a country where living is deplorable even for those outside the prison walls.

However, if we spare a thought for the inmates, you will agree that at least some of them deserve a better deal than society has offered them.

In a country where majority of the inmates are awaiting trial and may never be found guilty, why subject them to hellish living?

In a country where some of the “free” citizens, especially some politicians can make a perfect replacement for some of the inmates, it can only be common senses to provide them with basic health care.
