Editorial CorrectionalFacilities Ultramodern Correctional Facilities And Matters Arising
However, there are concerns about the location of one of these facilities, which is currently under construction at Karshi.Reports have surfaced that there is a quarry site located in the middle of the NCoS facility, which is a cause for concern as the constant blasting and crushing of rocks is not safe for any type of residential or official accommodation, let alone a security zone.
In light of national security, the quarry company is willing to relocate to another site, but is asking for compensation for the loss of its business. In the considered opinion of this newspaper, while the Buhari administration’s plan to construct new ultramodern correctional facilities is a welcome development that will help change the negative narrative surrounding Nigeria’s prison management system, it is important to address the issue of the quarry site in Karshi and find a solution that is fair to all parties involved.
The quarry is a massive modern multimillion Naira business rated among the best three in Nigeria because of its computerised technology and electrical engineering sophistication. These are indigenous investments owned by Nigerians but now reportedly going bankrupt.
