THEY CAN SEE AGAIN

CAPIO came to the aid of four prison inmates who were battling with severe sight problems. The CAPIO medical team was on hand to provide free consultations and prescriptions.  Medicated glasses were issued to them according to their needs.

CAPIO’s efforts to meet the health needs of the prisoners in Nigeria are in recognition of the fact that Prisoners are human beings who retain their dignity and right to health.

SEND FORTH PARTY FOR BARRISTER CONSTANCE

Today, CAPIO had a send forth party for Barr. Constance Ekeyede. She had joined the CAPIO legal team as a Youth Corps Member over a year ago.

FREE AFTER THREE YEARS

CAPIO facilitated the release of a twenty three year old man from prison. On the 11^th of March, a high court in Enugu State struck out the charge against a certain Chigozie Nomeh on the grounds of ‘lack of diligent prosecution’.

Chigozie had been arrested and detained in 2011. The charge for which he was detained was assaulting a 65 year old woman, a charge to which he pleaded not guilty. While the complainant never appeared in court, the prosecutor was present in one of the five hearing that spanned a period between 4^th of July, 2013 and 11^th of March, 2014. Barr. Gregory Obasohan, a CAPIO Legal Officer  who represented the accused commented that justice has finally been served.
