It is important therefore, that State Governments begin to invest in corrections.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said that it was \u201ceven more important to reform the criminal justice system.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have been making this case and I will continue to do so, that 70 per cent of inmates are awaiting trial and constitute the majority in our facilities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe sad thing about this is, we cannot statutorily begin their process of reformation because they are assumed to be innocent, except for those who voluntarily wish to participate in any of our programmes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The minister expressed concern that most of the awaiting trial inmates \u201chave spent time in detention longer than the maximum sentence their alleged offence carries\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis predispose them to violent conduct and they are the biggest source of the challenge of discipline and control at the custodial centres.\u201c<\/p>\n<p>The minister, therefore, stressed the need for state governments to reform their justice administration system by putting a cap on trial period of accused persons and ensure swift dispensation of justice.<\/p>\n<p>This, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2023\/05\/11\/states-now-to-feed-accommodate-inmates-aregbesola\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Aregbesola<\/a> said, would end long court trials and perpetual detention of accused persons.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Minister of Interior, Rauf Aregbesola, has called for comprehensive review of Nigeria\u2019s criminal justice system to reduce the alarming number of inmates in correctional facilities awaiting trial.
