This was revealed at a one-day strategy meeting of
stakeholders in the justice and prisoners welfare sector organised by the
Catholic Institute for Development Justice and Peace, CIDJAP, in Enugu, over
the weekend. The institute therefore
urged Government to do something about it fast, and it’s not in any way hygienic
