The Origins of Prison Service in Nigeria Did you know that the first set of prison officers in Nigeria was trained by British colonial authorities? In the early days of colonial rule, British prison officers were seconded to Nigeria to train local officers in prison management. This training laid the foundation for the development of the Nigerian prison service, which has since evolved into the Nigerian Correctional Service (NCS). As Reformers, we recognize the importance of understanding our history and how it shapes our present. The Nigerian Correctional Service has come a long way since its humble beginnings, and we're committed to supporting its ongoing reforms. #PrisonReform #NigerianHistory #Reformers"
