The governor also commuted death sentences to life imprisonment and reduced jail terms for other inmates.

Zulum made the announcement yesterday during a visit to the facility as part of his engagements to mark the 2025 Democracy Day celebrations.

He stated that the decision followed recommendations from the Advisory Committee on the Prerogative of Mercy and pledged continued support for the inmates.

“Based on the powers conferred on me under Section 212 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (as amended) and the recommendations of the Advisory Committee on the Prerogative of Mercy, I hereby grant state and partial pardons to 66 inmates of the Maximum Custodial Centre,” Zulum declared.
