The Nigerian Correctional Service NCoS has again denied claims that inmates in its custodial centers are malnourished and poorly fed.

In a statement released on Sunday, May 4, the spokesperson of the service, Abubakar Umar, described the claims as false, misleading, and a gross misrepresentation of the realities within our facilities.Nigerian home decor ide

Also, in response to current economic realities and rising inflation, the Federal Government of Nigeria has recently approved an increase in the daily feeding allowance for inmates in custodial centres from the previous rate to ₦1,125 per inmate per day. This adjustment is aimed at ensuring that inmates receive adequate and nutritious meals in line with acceptable welfare standard.

Umar explained that the feeding of inmates is not conducted in secrecy as several independent oversight bodies, including the Ministry of Interior, civil society groups, and international partners, periodically assess the conditions in our custodial centres.

What do you think?

Even if it where true, they will definitely deny it no doubt, and i personally don't think it's beyond them to not take proper care of them.

Yea, with these people we cat trust their words.They might be lying through their teeth

 

[King Belieal]

We all know that they don't feed inmates well. Citizens that have freedom are struggling to eat well. How then would prison inmates feed well?

Lol, that's the reality. They are lying through their teeth. More like telling the world white truth.
