Incarcerated veteran dancehall, deejay Ninjaman has once again leveraged his platform to address critical issues within Jamaica’s penal system, articulating his insights and suggestions in a compelling letter. Directed towards the Prime Minister of Jamaica, the political directorate, Ninjaman’s missive urges a reevaluation of the rehabilitation process for inmates, emphasizing the need for substantial improvements.
In the audio rendition of his letter, eloquently delivered by narrator Jojo Mac, Ninjaman highlights the absence of effective rehabilitation programs for prisoners, contending that enhancing this aspect is vital for the betterment of Jamaica. He advocates for a post-incarceration support system, asserting that individuals who have completed their prison sentences should receive meaningful assistance to facilitate their reintegration into society.
Ninjaman posits a pragmatic solution, suggesting that physically fit prisoners could contribute to funding the prisons by engaging in productive work. He proposes allocating a percentage of their earnings to an account, which could serve as a financial resource upon their release, offering them a fresh start or assisting their families. The deejay expresses his willingness to spearhead this initiative, utilizing his knowledge and personal connections once authorized by the relevant authorities.
Furthermore, Ninjaman addresses the plight of elderly prisoners, recommending their release due to health concerns and their diminished capacity to exert negative influences on Jamaican society. His comprehensive letter reflects a nuanced understanding of the challenges within the penal system and a commitment to fostering positive change through practical solutions.
