DSP Netse Adjettey noted that the Sekondi Prisons which has the capacity to house 400 now has over 600 inmates. If we have to feed over 600 inmates with an amount meant for 400 inmates,” said the PRO of Sekondi Central Prisons. “Subsequently, the inmates protested and refused to eat the food given them on the morning of Friday,” he explained. He has therefore called on benevolent organisations and individuals to come to the aid of the Sekondi Prisons by supporting them with food items to complement the government's efforts. In Ghana, there have been several reports on the poor living condition of prisoners.
