Aregbesola warns Nigeria’s prison officials on corruption

The Minister of Interior, Rauf Aregbesola, on Saturday, warned officials of the Nigerian Correctional Service (NCS) to eschew all forms of corruption in the discharge of their duties.

Aregbesola, who spoke at the Passing out Parade of cadets at the 28th Assistant Superintendent of Correctional Basic Course (Batch E) of the NCoS in Kaduna, warned the officers against engaging with inmates and outsiders in a manner that would lead to a jailbreak.

He said: “I have no doubt that this basic course has actually produced the desired impact on you all for the tasks ahead.
