4. Jimeta

most-feared-prisons-03

The Jimeta prison in Damaturu, Yobe state is especially dangerous because most times it houses religious extremists and Boko Haram prisoners, which makes it prone to violent attacks.

Most people in this prison are not sure of seeing the next day.

The Jimeta prison break in 2012 was an attack by 40 gunmen suspected to be members of the terrorist group Boko Haram.

The attack is thought to have been a bid to rescue imprisoned members of Boko Haram.

About 40 prisoners escaped from the prison; seven inmates and one prison warden died. The escaped prisoners were largely Boko Haram members.

  1. Do you know they treat prisoners the same way the treat mad people in the psy…….they give prisoners food that contain nicotine…..a chemical that makes you dosile (feel lazy and relax)…..you wont even think of going home again…..you see prison yard as ur paradise…….so b4 u think of commiting crime think twice

  2. How we’d they survive this? What happened to the prison reform program? Is prison out of budget? Corruption as usual hun? This is so in human. the past directors of prisons should be investigated. This is night mare knowing there are some innocent ones among them.

  3. This is where people like bisi alimi,idris okuneye(bobrisky),denrele,seun belong to.
    I trust these men in prison they’ve not set eyes on a woman in years by the time they are done with these gaylords they’ll have a rethink#yeyedeysmell
