According to TheCable Lifestyle, Burna Boy and activist VeryDarkMan visited the Kirikiri Maximum Security Custodial Centre to understand the procedures for discharging eligible inmates whose sentences include fines.
Authorities framed the visit around lawful process and transparency, while online chatter focused on what support might follow and how outcomes will be tracked.
The episode sits at the intersection of celebrity influence, prison decongestion advocacy, and public trust.
Verification
- The Nation (Website): “to seek information on legal procedures that would facilitate the discharge of inmates through the payment of fines.”
- Nigerian Tribune (Website): “No inmate is released without proper verification, documentation, and authorization…”
Echotitbits take: If handled transparently, this could evolve from a one-off visit into a structured, legal-aid-driven initiative. Watch for official documentation, credible partners, and verifiable outcomes before the story becomes pure social-media mythology.
