Nigerian Overseas Prisoners Support Initiative.
Hope Beyond Borders!
Welcome to the Nigerian Overseas Prisoner Support Initiative (NOPSI) website, where compassion meets action. Across the globe, countless Nigerians find themselves incarcerated abroad, grappling with myriad challenges ranging from navigating unfamiliar legal systems to enduring isolation and deprivation. At NOPSI, we are dedicated to extending a lifeline to these individuals and their families, offering a comprehensive array of services tailored to their needs. From ensuring every prisoner receives essential visits and correspondence to advocating for their rights and facilitating repatriation, our mission is to provide unwavering support throughout their journey. While rooted in Christian principles, NOPSI embraces individuals of all faiths and backgrounds, recognizing our shared humanity.

Hong Kong Partnership
The Nigeria Overseas Prisoners Support Initiative (NOPSI) and the Christian New Life Association (CNLA) Hong Kong have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to formalise their partnership.
