Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 44788, member: 636"] Two prison workers lost their jobs after helping a convicted criminal apply for a travel document. The Nigerian Correctional Service fired these officers when they found out about the scandal. A prisoner tried to get an international passport during his time behind bars. Prison officials caught this illegal activity through computer systems that track passport applications. The Nigeria Immigration Service helped expose this wrongdoing through their automated monitoring. Prison spokesperson Abubakar Umar explained how they discovered the problem two weeks earlier. New reforms at the immigration office flagged the suspicious passport request right away. Different government agencies worked together to catch this misconduct. The Civil Defence board suspended both officers immediately after learning about their actions. Minister Dr Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo leads this board and approved the punishment. Prison chief Sylvester Nwakuche promised to keep fighting corruption inside correctional facilities. He wants all prison staff to follow proper rules and treat inmates fairly. The correctional service aims to keep dangerous criminals locked up safely. They also work to help prisoners change their lives for the better. Any worker who breaks the law or takes bribes will face serious consequences. Officials warned that corrupt prison employees have no future with the agency. The correctional service plans to maintain high standards across all their facilities. They want to meet international guidelines for running prisons properly. Prison leaders believe honest workers deserve respect and support. Crooked employees will find themselves looking for new careers elsewhere. [/QUOTE]
