This is a shame to Ghana which claims to champion the human rights in Africa.
As a matter of fact, some people are just imprisoned for crimes that could have attracted community services like cleaning, desilting choked gutters, cleaning road sides among others. Yet our judges put them into prisons for a long time for offences like stealing a bunch of plantain and some cassava while the real criminals like Wayome are walking on the streets freely. Does this make sense?

This so inhumane and downright disgusting! Such unhealthy treatment of those inmates can in fact cause outbreak of many diseases such as cholera

Sekondi Central Prison in Koforidua has been mentioned twice in this article,is it that the Koforidua Central Prisons is the same as Sekondi Central Prison?
Secondly, two tuberculosis cases shouldn't be over hyped as an outbreak, it makes the situation look scary.

Kofi, it is not only Prison Officers and other inmates who are at risk, but people in K'dua too. Health matters within the prisons are generally public health matters. More especially highly communicable diseases like T.B. and chicken-pox. If the prison communities throughout the country are neglected and starved of the needed funds and resources, society will be also affected negatively

I understand visitors of inmates come from all over the Eastern Region and even from other regions so we can appreciate the scope of the problem.

Where are the Ministers and other State Officials responsible for this mess? I will appeal to Mr Asiedu Nketia, the 'Accredited General Mosquito', who advises all others except his own, to visit this prison and with his acclaimed expertise advise his ruling Party how to fix this! You see, it is only when you start fixing things will you be SURE of retaining your Party's Rule. I am not a General, neither am I a mosquito, but one thing I know for sure is that, in politics, you CANNOT take anything for granted!. Even with our 'naïve' / 'gullible' electorate, you still cannot be sure until the chips are down! Asiedu Nketia, are you reading this????
