While making the donations, Mr Peter stated that taking care of the inmates should be a collective responsibility of the society at large.
He said his is on tour of prisons in Delta State and promised that Warri prison will also benefit from other humanitarian gestures like skill acquisition training, free books, among others.
According to him, “the only way people can showcase what they are doing to improve humanity is by reaching out to the less privileged in the society.”
He maintained that most of the facilities in the prison are in dire need of repairs while calling on the National Assembly to make legislation that will establish independent body for the management of prison facilities in Nigeria.
