    Isn’t someone get a monthly or weekly salary from the government to keep these bathrooms and toilets clean, including the other areas in the said building??

    This is alarming. And by the way, the prison is under renovation, but the cells are still fully functional. It is a phased process. Every now and then CBH would come and hose down the place but it does back the same way. The police officers won’t even venture there. I know because my man is a police officer and he speaks about this matter alot. For those who didnt know how there looked now we know.

    They operate in a container at the same building. However people in lockup are actually inside the building at the back. There’s nothing shocking about this. It is how things look

    So who put shit and garbage in dey? The police and the government ???

    They are operating. Renovation works are going on upstairs. Up until weekend my cousin was in the lock up. It is the case.

    Good! An excellent deterrent. Should save a lot of money on waste-of-time counselors and ineffective social workers. By their actions, these criminals and their backers want to reduce the populace to living in crap. Well, let them be first in experiencing this way of life. No apologies!

    …. and that has been the situation since long ago before renovations started I happened to have been a victim of the system. I thought things had improved but I can see it has only gotten worse

    The first question that comes to mind. Isn’t this station closed for repairs? Haven’t they relocated the station down where the Port Authority is? If this is the case then your story is NOT so credible. Go fact check and come again!
