Ilorin Maximum Prison Lacks Power Supply for over One Year
The Mandala Maximum Prison in Ilorin, the Kwara State capital, has been without power supply for over one year now, the prison’s Controller, Mr. Olarinde Bolanle, has said.
Addressing journalists at the weekend, Bolanle said officers had been left with no other option than to work with hurricane lamps at nights.
The controller disclosed that what led to the pitiable situation was a faulty transformer that supplies the prison and the adjoining villages with public power.
He said that the prison, which has 135 inmates, found it difficult to carry out vocational activities for the inmates since the blackout began in January 2012.
Bolanle said that he had reported the matter to the Kwara State Government and the House of Assembly.
