Officials at Nsawam Medium Security Prison have noticed a worrying increase. More and more inmates are involved in drug-related offenses.
Recent checks inside the prison walls have led to several seizures. These seizures show a pattern of more drugs being smuggled in.
The use of these illegal substances within the prison facilities is also on the rise, according to prison authorities.
This trend is a major concern for prison management. Managing these issues poses a significant challenge.
The Ghana Prisons Service is looking into ways to address this growing problem.
Further details on the types of drugs and the methods of smuggling are being investigated.
