VOICE AIR MEDIA, VAM News Update
THE Correctional Center in Jos, the capital of Plateau State, experienced a protest on Friday due to nationwide economic difficulties. Inmates voiced their displeasure over the proposed reduction in their food supply.
The head of the Jos Correctional Center, Raphael Ibinuhi, verified that the inmates staged a protest.
He said, “The problem has to do with the high cost of goods in the market. The contractor in charge of the foods said they are being forced by the price of food items to reduce the size of the plate of foods.
“So, it is the food size that provoked the protest. I don’t think the protest is necessary because the food challenge and the cost of items is a national issues that the federal government is already addressing. And I want to believe that since it is a national issue, whatever step taken by the federal government to address it will be felt everywhere in the country including the Correctional centers.”
