\"\"<\/a>The Catholic Metropolitan Archbishop of Kumasi, Most Reverend Thomas Mensah, has called on public-spirited individuals and organisations, to help make conditions in the country\u2019s prisons more humane.<\/p>\n

It is important to ensure that the prisoners live in human dignity, he stressed.<\/p>\n

Archbishop Mensah made the call during the presentation of assorted Christmas gifts to the Kumasi Central Prison by the Church.<\/p>\n

The items included used clothing, soap, biscuits, bags of rice and sugar, tubers of yam and bathroom sandals.<\/p>\n

Archbishop Mensah reminded the prisoners to reform and to firmly resolve not to go back to the bad habits that led to their imprisonment, after they had regained their freedom.<\/p>\n

He said it would be difficult for society to accept them if they persist in evil acts.<\/p>\n

Deputy Director of Prisons Kwame Ackom Gyedu said the prison service is doing everything possible to expose the inmates to trades that would enable them to earn decent living.<\/p>\n

He, however, appealed for support by way of the supply of vocational training tools and equipment.<\/p>\n

He said the prison presented 25 inmates for this year\u2019s Basic Education Certificate Examination who scored 100 per cent pass.<\/p>\n
