The prisons department is again on the spot after one of the warders at the Kamiti Maximum Prison was arrested trying to smuggle in drugs into the institution. Isaac Njoroge, who has served the prisons for more than 30 years, was arrested as he attempted to sneak the drugs into the facility. The question we are asking is whether our correctional centers are really up to the task of behavior change in their inmates?
it is fine going for small fish while the big fish are laughing all the way to the bank.
there are far serious malpractices that happen within the prison services involving the big fish than this.
I see this as simple PR exercise meant for the cameras.

Nonsense. Legalise the distribution of cigarettes and condoms to prisoners and you'll avert subversive activities. Furthermore, reform the prisons department and enable rahabilitation of prisoners, raise prison warder pay and equip them better. For crying out loud the PRC is wearing a relic of the colonial times shameful!
