The Delta State Government, in collaboration with Tantita Security Services Limited, has inaugurated an 8-classroom block at the Medium Security Correction Centre, Okere Road, Warri, to boost inmate education and rehabilitation.
The facility, built by Tantita Security Services, was officially commissioned on Tuesday, September 23, 2025, with the state Commissioner for Higher Education, Prof. Nyerhovwo Tonukari, representing Governor Sheriff Oborevwori at the ceremony.
Prof. Tonukari said the project reflects the state government’s commitment to using education as a tool for transformation, rehabilitation, and reintegration of inmates into society.
He commended Tantita Security Services for its corporate social responsibility, describing the partnership as a model for government–private sector collaboration.
“This initiative shows how education can serve as a bridge between incarceration and reintegration. By equipping inmates with knowledge and skills, we are not just giving them a second chance but also contributing to the growth and security of our state,” Tonukari stated.
The Commissioner further noted that Governor Oborevwori’s administration prioritizes policies and partnerships that empower people through learning, adding that the classrooms will provide a conducive environment for inmates to pursue knowledge and vocational training.
Managing Director of Tantita Security Services Ltd, Chief Keston Pondi, expressed commitment to investing in human development and community-building initiatives, stressing that education is critical to reducing recidivism and fostering peace in society.
The inauguration ceremony underscored the growing synergy between government and private stakeholders in Delta State, with both parties affirming that the facility will serve as a beacon of hope for inmates seeking a new beginning.
