Prisoners who sit for National Industrial Training Institute exams will soon be able to get certificates from the institution as the state seeks to clear debts that have blocked the same. Correctional Services PS Salome Beacco on Wednesday said they are nearing the completion of the payment of debts owed to Nita. The PS said the certificates will help the inmates once they get out of jail to easily get a job to fend for themselves and their families. She said their mandate is to ensure their clients are reformed, rehabilitated and are properly integrated back into society. The PS said they want to increase the number of workshops, equipments inside prisons and have requisitioned more equipment for rehabilitation.
