    Unless you live in a very rich country, try your best not to get locked up.

    • @ariefraiser140
      @ariefraiser140 6 лет назад +6

      It seems harsh but stealing things in a country where most of the people only earn a couple of dollars a day is dangerous. People don't have time for courts and legal maneuvering. They and their neighbors will lynch a thief right there and then as a deterrent. That's why most thieves run straight to the police if caught stealing.

    Poor people are those who have no money, begging and have to steal when empty stomach is in pain. It is a shame to jail somebody for stealing a milk. It is just scaring how humans treat each other inkluding the outside world that just look or not. Who cares? Gambia is a turist paradise but nobody really do something good to make the country to grow as we do. Shame to the greedy world.

    No news. All African prisons are like this. This one is a little bit improved coz I saw some mattresses and blankets. Most prisons inmates have to farm there own food. Buckets are the only means of convenience and they're inside a cell with 1 small window with 100 of inmates. Imagine the stench. You should fight every day for sleeping rights. Weak inmates are the ones to dispose of waste buckets. I found a guy who has spent 10yrs on remand for stealing a chicken and he is awaiting trial.
    The reason I was put in prison I was arrested for idle and disorderly that took me 9months to serve until my family paid a ransom. In Africa just have money, don't talk abt the government then every thing will be alright

    My step dad grounded me for a full month and gave me a good kicking for pinching a pint off milk when I was 14. Not that bad after all
