WTH! Is this really how prisoners in Nigeria sleep

 I saw these photos and I'm shocked that human beings could survive like this. Imagine the heat and all. There is no fan, no AC,nothing.What if some are ill? And ofcourse, the saddest part is that some innocent ones are there..
 Hmmmn

Prisons should be a correctional facility, where people are rehabilitated while being remanded for their offences, it has somewhat become the opposite in Nigeria. It is like the place where you go to that you may or may not return. People thrown into prisons join the multitude of people, guilty people, innocent people who have found themselves in the spot with little or no help forthcoming.


The number of awaiting trial inmates in different prisons is alarming. Some people have spent eight years waiting for trial. These are factors that the government should look into. The current state of the prisons is really saddening.
