The Minister of Interior, Rauf Aregbesola has said that authorities of the nation’s correctional centres are rejecting new suspects being sent to them by the police because the action was not in compliance with the COVID-19 protocols.
Aregbesola made this known on Tuesday while speaking with journalists after defending his Ministry’s 2021 budget proposal before the Senate Committee on Interior.
He also confirmed that his Ministry would approach the National Assembly with a supplementary budget soon to rebuild all the correctional centres destroyed during the protests that followed the #EndSARS protests recently.
