He also described the repealing of the Nigerian Prisons Service Act, CAP P29 laws of the federation 2004 and enacting the Nigerian Correctional Service Act 2019 as a significant mile stone towards the development of the service.

The Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Interior, Georgia Ehuria MON, Commended the CG for his quality Leadership that has continued to receive international recognitions haven just bagged the 2018 UNESCO Confucius Award for literacy and skill development for inmates.
