Netizen React as Man Regains Freedom 10 Years After Getting Arrested While Charging Laptop At Friend’s Place
A Nigerian man, identified as Junior, has been released from prison after spending 10 years behind bars in what many are calling a tragic miscarriage of justice.
Junior’s ordeal began a decade ago when he was arrested at a friend’s house while charging his laptop during a power outage.
In a heartfelt post shared on social media, a user with the handle @Ayodejixon shared the emotional journey, describing how Junior was “branded a criminal” and spent a decade in prison “for nothing.”
Photos shared after his release showed Junior expressing gratitude through prayer in a church and celebrating his newfound freedom.
The story has sparked widespread outrage online, with many Nigerians lamenting systemic flaws in the justice system and the profound human cost of such failures. Advocacy groups continue to call for reform and greater accountability to prevent similar cases in the future.
