The Minister of Interior, Rauf Aregbesola, made this known while delivering a keynote address at the Ministry’s 2nd Annual strategic retreat, in Ilorin.
The theme of the retreat is “Developing Internal Security and Public Safety towards a Five Year Strategic Plan for Accelerated National Development’.
Aregbesola said work on some of the custodial facilities in Kano, Rivers and FCT had reached advanced stages of completion.
The minister said the government had also commenced the re-training of officers of the Nigeria Correctional Service, to enable them respond swiftly to external attacks on custodial centres in the country.
He pledged that the ministry would continue to provide the right leadership and policy direction for the service and other agencies under it, to enable them deliver on their mandates.
