FLASH: Lagos State Governor, Mr @jidesanwoolu has approved the release of 56 inmates from various correctional Centres and granted State pardon to @funkeakindele and her husband, Mr. Abdulrasheed Bello, who are both non-custodial convicts for offences related to the disobedience of COVID-19 lockdown regulations.

A statement signed by the State Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Mr. Moyosore Onigbanjo, SAN, said Mr. Sanwo-Olu acted based on the recommendations of the State Advisory Council on Prerogative of Mercy, under the powers conferred on the Governor by Section 212 (1) & (2) of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria as amended.

The 56 released inmates were recommended by the Advisory Council after due examination of their case files and consideration of the length of time served, the gravity of offence, old age and ill-health among other parameters. The Attorney General has also ened the beneficiaries to be good citizens and stay away from crime.

The eight-member Advisory Council on Prerogative of Mercy, headed by Dr. Abayomi Finnih was inaugurated Governor Sanwo-Olu in December 2019.

Why won't he grant them state pardon??

He definitely won't to free all his other citizens who have been arrested and detained for no reason at all, or those shot dead or maimed by trigger-happy police officers just because they can.

Two things he (and other politicians) know how to do include :
1) Eat our money
2) Grant state pardon to rich and influential people while abandoning the rest of the citizens he governs
3) Enrich himself, his family and his friends
4) Eat more of our money
