POPULAR BARRACKS HALL RENOVATION

The Nigerian prison service barracks, Kirikiri town is a domicile where so many activities take place. Activities such as: training, exercise, study, services, parties, above all serving sentences. However, a portion of the barracks is dedicated to serving sentences while the rest are for all the above mentioned activities.

There was a school called Immaculate Heart which was close to one of the halls in the barracks. This hall was popular among the Kirikiri town people. They held most social gatherings there. This hall is one of the oldest halls in Kirikiri town and has been in a decapitated state for a long time, but not minding its state, the Sisters Fellowship International (SFI) and others still used it as a meeting point.

The hall is being renovated and it is beside the just concluded state of the art, and formidable new hall built by the Nigerian Prison Service. This new hall can contain more than 200 people if well-arranged and beside it, is a carefully placed lawn tennis court. Perhaps, according to speculations, an officer’s mess might be the primary idea behind this development. 

If finally renovated, it might not be used for social and organizational gatherings because there are more halls in the barracks that could accommodate such. Do not be sad fellow k-townies; those other halls are up to standard as series of programs will have already been held in those halls. The hall is close to the Kirikiri prison/ Kirikiri town stadium.

More developments will occur around the prison barracks and it is for good. Kirikiri prison is also experiencing upgrade as it is in Kirikiri town and its upgrade course is infectious.

Our motto remains…Upgrading Standards.
