By ADAM NOSSITERPublished: June 1, 2013
Summary:
Two prisoners broke out of the Niamey Niger central prison. They were both
associated with a terrorist attack that killed at least 20 people in the towns of Agadez and Arlit.
These two prisoners killed two guards and escaped the prison.
This episode brought in many nervous soldier blocking off streets and crowds gathering in the prison neighborhood.

My thoughts:
I think that Niger prisons should have more guards and stronger protection. Terrorists should be kept under regular supervision and be kept in even more protected cells. If terrorists have and easy way of escaping, then Niger is going to become a lot less safe than it already is. Terrorist attacks should not be taken lightly and terrorists should not be given any chances of escaping prison. This is a serious issue in Niger that should be fixed.

Tying into Culture:
When a country's society is in danger, their culture is in danger as well.
If Niger's prisons don't improve on their security, their people will be in danger of more terrorist attacks.
This will also lower their status and will make Niger knows as a dangerous and terrorist country.
No tourists will ever visit, lowering their economy. No other countries will make alliances- lowering their status even more.
Overall, this prison situation is a threat to Niger's people and culture.
