Beyond the safe custody, reformation, and welfare of prisoners, the Officer-in-Charge of the Manhyia Palace-based correctional facility - the Manhyia Local Prison - Deputy Director of Prisons (DDP) Hannah Hilda Ewoame, has gone beyond the usual routine to introduce a poultry farm venture.
This initiative is rapidly transforming not just the institution's protein supply but also the lives and prospects of the inmates involved.
Revamped barely a month ago, the initiative has grown from a modest coop into a bustling operation housing over 100 broilers.
Its primary goal is to support daily rationing, offer practical agricultural training, and foster rehabilitation - all contributing to the prison's broader sustainability drive.
