Naira Marley has announced his plans to help some of the people he met while he was in jail who cannot defend themselves.

The music star made this known via his Instagram page on Monday, June 17, 2019. According to him, these guys have been in jail for years without even getting to the trial stage of their cases. He then went to say that even though he can’t change Nigeria alone, with a collective effort from everyone, it can be done.

“I have to help a lot of ni**gas I met in jail. I met one guy, he has been in jail for 9 years, never been to the court, as in they haven’t even found him guilty. What if he is not even guilty? I met another nigga in jail. Been in jail for over two years because he was in a relationship with one rich woman’s daughter and the woman locked him up for not leaving her daughter,” he wrote.
