A prison inmate, Theophilus Adeniyi, has received a second
class upper degree in peace studies and conflict resolution from the National
Open University of Nigeria (NOUN).
Adenyi, an awaiting trial inmate and pioneer student of NOUN
at its Enugu Prison study centre, was on Tuesday presented the certificate by
the Controller-General of the Nigerian Prisons Service (NPS), Dr Peter Ekpendu,
at the first convocation of the centre.
Ekpendu commended Adeniyi for making the NPS proud and
promised to continue to encourage inmates to reach their potentials in whatever
trade they chose.
