It has been reported that many inmates were killed and many others injured during the fracas that happened yesterday at the Kirikiri Medium Prisons Lagos following a protest by inmates over the isolation of one of them.
According to reports, the isolated inmate who was also the leader of a Christian programme that takes place within the prisons had bought a microphone and a fan from his personal money. but the Deputy Prison Controller was said to have disapproved of this purchase and ordered that the prisoner be locked up in isolation.
This was said to have annoyed other inmates which resulted in them throwing stones and other items at the prison warders.
The Deputy Prison Controller reportedly ordered the prison police unit to shoot at sight which resulted in many deaths.
Reactions from the prison authorities is still been awaited.
