This is what our prison system should be, rehabilitate these guys while they are serving time...

What a freeman cannot do, a prisoner has done it...

God bless his hard work. NOUN some of your students are having missing results, delaying their graduation. Please management take note.

Thus guy must be handled intelligently.
But he's yet to regain his freedom

That's obviously what headlines are for

Most criminals are actually very smart. How do you think they have been cheating the system all this while?

Hahahaha, abi?

But I give thanks to the wisdom of the prison chiefs. This is a good idea.

I love this.

It's a challenge to those that are free.

Like he made a good use of his jail time, make a good use of your free time

You will not die if you read comprehensively

Since being in prison has impacted on him the spirit of excellence in his academic pursuit,

He should never think about being free again to keep enjoying the success.
