This inmate you see beside me were given a jail sentence of 2ys, some 5yrs and more or pay a FINE of 20,000naira , some 10,000naira some 40,000naira above .

The painful things is if you hear their crime .

One was jail for stealing yam . Another was jail 3 years for stealing 4,500naira .

In this prison their is no water , sometimes they take their bath once a week , many a sick their are no drugs.
