After her husband Emmanuel Chukwulozie was imprisoned for 11 months under the hazardous conditions of the prison cells, Angela Chukwulozie witnessed the conditions of the prison dampen the spirits of men considered condemned. Considering the dignity of the man imprisoned, it did not seem right that human beings should be subjected to such conditions.Her frequent visits motivated her to do something about those gruelling conditions. Upon dying shortly after his release, Emmanuel Chukwulozie’s experience moved Mrs Chukwulozie even further. She decided to set up the Okechukwu Emmanuel Memorial foundation to help prisoners who needed a more compassionate reintroduction to the outside world.
