The Federal Government has unveiled plans to invest in the building of modern prisons across the country.
He said, “Most of our prisons, particularly those situated in urban centres are more than a century old; over a hundred years old.“So, what we do is to ensure that we build modern prisons that will meet the required universal standard for the treatment and rehabilitation of prison inmates. According to him, correctional facilities in the country are in dire need of rehabilitation or outright replacement.The Chairman of the House of Representatives Committee on Interior, Mr Adams Jagaban, also addressed the audience at the event.
“Since 1999 that we have been working hard to pass this bill, it has never reached this level but with the cooperation of the current Controller-General of Prisons, we have reached the position we are today,” Jagaban added.
Hmm bashi da amfani
Howfar
Hahaha you can't provide jobs so you build prisons right? Copy from those who are closing theirs because building prisons doesn't improve lives!!
Modern prisons instead of modern hospitals that can treat our president so that he will stop visiting London and also build modern schools. Well Mr Minister the modern prisons will accommodate you first you will have a suite there for 14yrs like the ex governors
They are not seeing modern schools to build, is prison that is in their mind. When we invest in education, the level of crime will reduce. Who is advising this Goverment? Hummmm wahala for we nation.
We don’t need prison, build us refineries, functional power plants and get the youth engaged. Crime rate will drop if no cease. Remember the idle mind is the devils workshop
Gud achievements from this government 'prison ' not schools, job creation, motivational seminars, hospitals, profitable infrastructure in gud roads for farmers to transport food to city, but building prisons and high way for robbers to occupy.
Al Bashir did the same 👍
Country like Netherlands is converting her prison to hotels BCOS of empty spaces their ( less crime). And my country at 21st century is thinking of building modern prison. Who do we offend in dis country
modern prisons and not modern school there was a country
We are all in prison, .the shackle of hopelessness in every homes and individual is enough prison than the conventional Nigeria' s prison
Always on creating prison
Rubbish
Prison for u and your children right?
Hope the corrupt APC member will be the first to be in there?
modern prison is not a developmental project..it doesn't build our economy...
For you and your family?
The fg should focus on insecurity first many lives been lost
building modern prison for your children and your generation after you walahi this APCNigeria is the worst disaster that have and will ever happen to Nigeria, those idiot are not thinking of building modern schools and hospital but prison for God sake who did offend
May they that build it enter themselves in Jesus mighty name amen
Why prison,
Without build any modern school.
Building prison living schools unattended to, not converting colleges to model colleges but can u convert prion into self contain?
This people and prisons
It seems Lucky Dube’s “prophecy” is fulfilling “all they build ‘ll be prison prison!”And for me this is what happens when leaders are leading without any ideology of human development. Give Nigerian youths jobs, n fix other social problems, n you ‘ll see no one to send to prison!
Building prison is not part of development, it just shows how the country failed to employ it's citizens, as a result of that crime rate increases
When other countries are closing theirs
Too bad of this government, instead of building industries
So,you are planning home away from home for inmates. Kudos to you Confused people.
When Netherlands and Norway are closing down their own.
Building modern prisons, hummmmmmm
Not modern schools and modern farms
It seems the politicians are planning for when they will be actually jailed for their offenses. UltraModernPrisons.
Useless people. Build life, not prisons. Yeye ppl..
So that after looting our money u will still have nice prison with AC and plasma TV abi?
Oga why building modern prison? Renovate the existing one and start plan for better things that will benefit the Masses.
Instead of you guys to build more schools.. Ingrates..
Failed leadership
Instead of schools
Why not renovate the existing ones and use that money to build more important infrastructure.
I bet it with you,they are for you and your generation...
We should talking about rehabilitating prisoners and proactively discouraging crime by encouraging hard work and honesty. This is will reduce the number of inmates which will translate to less spending on prisons and reallocation of resources towards development of our citizens.
For who
Where are the Next level clowns...?
They wan build no schools any more, all the build will be prison prison. LuckyDube saw this administration and what they could do. I weep for the mistake of Nigerians in 2015.
We need infrastructure not prisons
Shame on you folks who sold ur votes for stipend now coming on here to complain. Here comes the change and next level you voted for 😂
Any project that will empower their pocket is importanta
Prison indeed ! Build am Na !! And put all your family member !! Clueless people !! Ogun kill all of una
When advanced nations are building modern schools, here we are focusing on building modern pens. Next level indeed!
It's a failed government, clueless bunch of old fools
“Building modern prisons” when r some countries r closing theirs for lack of inmates!
Please focus on building modern schools not prisons except it's for you
Prisons for whom? Why build prisons when you are failing to fund edu nd hlthcare? Pls note: Education is the most powerful weapon we can use to change the world (Nelson Mandela), not prisons. Resuscitate industries, Create jobs nd Bury crime. Or increase crime nd bury d country.
All in the project Nextlevel.... we never see anything yet
This country is a big joke walahi
these people no get sense
Welcome to the Zoo republic called Nigeria... These are things you would see and hear.. Prison Prison Prison Not even factory modern hospital or clinic.. Even channels TV, if i were you. I would have insulted the man Dambazu for making speech of building prison instead of clinic
Building modern prisons,.....that you can get percentage from the contract
They won' t build no schools anymore All they' ll build will be prison, prison Lucky dube said it A country who fails to educate its people should be ready to set up more prisons and that’s what they are doing which the north is already an example
Useless people .my prayer is that you lots or your children will be locked in such places in Jesus name Amen
Building more prisons because FG has no business in improving the lives of her citizen hence putting their back up plan in place should they try to take laws into their hands.What a clueless govt in place?
Lucky Dube said it
Then have your kids live in it. Cowards and zombies everywhere. Idiots
Modern prisons 😂 😂 😂 of all things modern to build for this nation, it's Prison you guys chooses to build . shame on you all You and your children will rest in the prison first .
Instead of building prison why can't you build life, learn from the Netherlands.
Very shame on this present government, think of what the people need or want why the prison please.
