No fewer than 48 inmates of Lapai, Agaie, Bida, Kontagora, Kagara and New Bussa prisons in Niger State were granted pardon by the Chief Judge of the state, Justice Maria Dzukogi, during her annual visit to the prisons.

The CJ granted pardon to 16 inmates, who were held in the Kontagora and Kagara prisons respectively, on the grounds of good conduct and ill health.
Dzukogi admonished the discharged inmates to be law-abiding wherever they found themselves, adding that those of them that had learned one vocational skill or the other should put same to productive use after their release.
