 Prison inmates in Ogun State have been advised to desist from acts capable of truncating the reformation process put in place to make them useful citizens at the end of their term.

Ogun State Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Dr. Olumide Ayeni, stated this while celebrating his 51st birthday with inmates of Ibara Prisons and children of the Stella Obasanjo Children’s Home, Abeokuta.

The Commissioner charged the inmates at the Ibara Prison to desist from deceitful and questionable character to prove that they have realised their mistakes while in incarceration, assuring that due process would be followed in determining their case.

Ayeni added that the essence of the visit to both places was to appreciate God for his life, give back to the society and encourage inmates of the prison to be better persons by reflecting and desisting from acts that hitherto brought them there.

He told that being in incarceration does not mean that the society has forgotten them.

‘’The present administration in Ogun State is all about service to the people until we can do no more. More than ever before, we should think about our society, the privileged should strive to serve humanity and the society for the common good of all. It gives me joy to see these children at the Stella Obasanjo Childrens Home and their Care- givers doing wonderful well”, he said.

Responding on behalf of other inmates, Mr. David Oyedele, said they were honoured by the Commissioner’s visit, appreciating him for ensuring  speedy trial of cases since assumption of office .
