Beschreibung
Every form of crime breaks the law and should receive adequate justice. However, justice should also include an intelligent system that will rehabilitate offenders and keep all citizens away from breaking the laws of the state. The prison system is a central agency in this rehabilitation for Nigeria's criminal justice system. Performance of prison facilities across Nigeria has always been questioned especially for Abakaliki and Awka prisons. This discourse brings to light emerging patterns in operations, challenges, and hopes for these two prisons.
