The protesters freed inmates in the prisons, along Benin Sapele Road, near the Nigeria Union of Journalists, NUJ office.

And Frank Donga believes much more should have been done to secure the prison going by the fund allocated to it yearly.

“Where are the CCTVs in Benin prisons?” He asked

“The Nigeria Prisons Service allocations increased from N4Billion in 2015 to N16Billion yearly from 2016-2018 ( that’s N50Billion for 240 prisons).
