Gov. Amosun breaks down inside Ogun Prison

Governor Ibikunle Amosun of Ogun on Thursday wept at the pitiable sight of inmates at Oba prison in Abeokuta, Ogun State, western Nigeria.

The governor, who had earlier granted amnesty to 15 inmates at Ibara prison also in Abeokuta, could not hold back his emotions at Oba prison after witnessing what he called the "inhuman condition" to which the inmates were subjected.
It was gathered that Amosun was informed that majority of the 492 prisoners on awaiting trial list at the prison had spent between four and seven years in jail.

He ordered immediate medical attention for the inmates with critical medical conditions and directed that others should be taken to the hospital.
While making a speech at the prison, Amosun stated that the prison services was under the control of the Federal Government, adding that it would be irresponsible of any leader to neglect the conditions of prison inmates.
He expressed dismay at the deplorable state of prisons saying it would not enhance rehabilitation of inmates.
The state governor on the platform of All Progressives Congress, APC, said it is a big shame for him to realise that prisoners are undergoing such 'traumatised and dehumanised' condition in a state that he governs and promised to pay regular visits to prisons.
