HRCRC’s 2nd Quarter Branch Coordination Meeting

HRCRC’s 2nd Quarter Branch Coordination Meeting: HRCRC’s 2024 AOP includes cascading our interventions and learnings deeper into the grassroots, and as such we have put in place strategies to ensure that our members in the grassroots are given equal opportunities to improve themselves as well as the interventions they carry out.
We are grateful to our members who are devoted to driving home our vision and mission to the various communities.
With the help of our branches across the state, we have been able to intervene in cases all over the state and beyond.

Justice, Human Rights and Prison Decongestion

Following our resolve to uphold Human Rights by Decongesting the Prisons of inmates who shouldn’t be incarcerated, HRCRC facilitated the release of 13 inmates – discharge of five (5) and bail of eight (8) from Abakaliki Correctional Centre between May and June, 2024. Remarkably, one of 5 who was discharged and acquitted had been in custody for over six years Awaiting Trial.
We continue to advocate for a better, more humane, efficient and credible Criminal Justice System in Nigeria.
