Kaduna — The Kaduna State Government has fulfilled Governor Uba Sani’s pledge to provide financial support to 97 inmates granted clemency on Democracy Day, with each beneficiary receiving N100,000 to support their reintegration into society.
The beneficiaries, who were released under the governor’s constitutional prerogative of mercy, received the funds on Friday at the Kaduna Medium Security Custodial Centre.
Speaking during the presentation, the Officer in Charge of the Kaduna Medium Security Custodial Centre, Assistant Controller Dalhat Ibrahim, described the initiative as a boost to the rehabilitation and reintegration of the former inmates.
He said the governor’s intervention extended beyond securing their release, noting that the financial assistance would help them rebuild their lives and become productive members of society.
