Correctional Services Principal Secretary Dr Salome Beacco has pledged emergency support for Kenya Prison Service officers who were affected by last night’s fire at the Lang’ata Women Maximum Prison staff lines.
Speaking during a visit to the 30 families affected officers, Dr Beacco said immediate plans are underway to construct semi-permanent housing units to provide temporary shelter for those impacted.
She assured that the government is working on resolving the housing challenge facing officers from the Kenya Prisons Service.
Dr Beacco was accompanied by Commissioner General of Prisons Patrick Aranduh, who reaffirmed ongoing coordinated efforts to enhance living conditions and strengthen institutional safety across correctional facilities.
