ABSTRACT
This study presents a picture of what the Nigerian prison system and its administration look like in respect of health care delivery system. It is loathsome and disheartening to know that fellow human beings are subjected to inhumane treatment. Every prisoner regardless of his or her offence deserves a better treatment in whatever prison environment he or she finds himself or herself in respect of health facilities. Enough of seeing the prisons as mere warehouse for the criminal and as instrument for administering cruelty and settling scores with subversive elements. It is time the Nigerian government faces up to its responsibilities for those in its prisons. The main focus of this study is to investigate health care delivery system for inmates of the Nigeria prison using Nigerian prison service ado ekiti as a case study. Specifically, the study aimed at examining the health condition of prison inmates, assess the environmental condition of Nigeria prisons, assess the benefit to effective health care delivery in Nigeria prisons, examine the Nigerian prison reforms, examine the challenges to achieving an effective health care delivery system for prison inmates, and recommend ways of improving health care delivery in Nigeria prisons. Staffs of Nigeria prison service in Ekiti state formed the population of this study. The study therefore recommends that government should take necessary measures to reduce the long period of awaiting trial in prison custody because of the enormous challenges faced by the individuals and their difficulty in coping effectively with the challenges after all, some of them are innocent.
