A heartbreaking case of a boy imprisoned for 10 years without trial — arrested at 12 and now 22 — rightly calls for outrage and reform. However, a comment like “Nigeria is a crime scene” turns a specific injustice into a blanket condemnation of the entire nation. While frustration is understandable, such language fuels hopelessness and overshadows the real work needed to fix the problem. The priority should be pushing for solutions — faster trials, prison decongestion, and stronger oversight — so justice is served.
