The statement, which was signed by the agency’s executive secretary, Titilola Vivour-Adeniyi, added that the initiative is in partnership with the Lagos State Command of the Nigeria Correctional Service, and the Institute of Counselling of Nigeria. “It is imperative that incarcerated adult sex offenders are rehabilitated and supported to reduce the possibility of them perpetuating the same crime if eventually they are reintegrated into the society”, she said.
