 The Correction Pillar
Upon conviction of the accused by
the courts, the correctional institution
will take custody of the convict. The
prison authorities will ensure that the
convicted criminals will be attended to
properly through a program of
reformation that will make prisoners
better citizens. It is inside these
correctional institutions that the convicted
criminal is reformed during his/her term
of sentence. Once released, convicts will
then be ready to join the mainstream of
society as law-abiding citizens.
