Protesters Claim 68 Days In Kuje Prison Survived On Beans And Garri

A group of protesters has shared their harrowing experience of spending 68 days in Kuje Prison, where they say their only meals consisted of beans and garri. The detainees, who were arrested during protests advocating for the end of bad governance in Nigeria, described their time in the prison as grueling, with minimal food and harsh living conditions.

According to the protesters, the prison’s inadequate provisions left them with little nutrition, leading to a weakened state of health. They recounted surviving on the basic staples of beans and garri, which were often insufficient to sustain them for long periods. Despite these challenges, the protesters say they remained resolute in their demands for better governance and transparency from the Nigerian government.

The group’s ordeal has sparked outrage among their supporters, who are now calling for justice and better treatment for political detainees. The protesters have also raised concerns about the broader issue of human rights abuses and the mistreatment of citizens who speak out against the government.

As calls for accountability grow louder, the protesters’ experiences in Kuje Prison have brought attention to the ongoing issues surrounding political freedoms and the treatment of dissenters in Nigeria.
