What is the Nigerian government doing to salvage the future of its citizens. The 16,400 Nigerians in the UK prisons, apparently traveled for greener pasture, but probably engaged in criminal acts or detailed for unlawful stay in the UK.

It is high time the federal government woke up from its slumber!
