INTRODUCTION

BACKGROUND TO STUDY

This requires little or no effort to convince Nigerians that prison in the country is congested. It may however be difficult to convince most Nigerians that prison terms serving any useful purpose such as punishment and reformation prisons may be responsible for the discussion aimed at the international be administration.

The primary purpose of penal establishment is provides a secured human containment for people who are in custody. Rusk (1967) stated that education is a process through which forester in the individual desirable and attitude quite often, the elements of skills, knowledge and its acquisition are right added to give clearer meaning to the concept. Viewed as a process education generally involves the interaction of some educator and the educate. In the process of boost adult education in the prison therefore, the education and criminal justice programme originated at the Paris conference of the international council for adult education (IVAE) in 2002. A number of steps were taken to respond to the interest expressed 1989-1992in Paris. At the world assembly in 2005 a statement of objective and suggested plains of action were developed. These were subsequently approved by the ICAE programme advisory committee. The objectives of programme are as follows, there are four objectives:

1.           To introduce, develop and gain acceptance as an educational approach in the field of crime prevention.
