“I also visited the Maximum Security Custodial Centre, in Olomi, Oyo state. I was impressed with the level of work and facility made available for use of the inmates. Soon, the facility will be put in use to decongest the Agodi Custodial Centre.
“During the tour, I charged the officers to protect the integrity of the facilities by using maximum force to deter anyone who attempts to attack any correctional centre in the country.
