dc.descriptionThis paper discussed the challenges facing prison education or correctional education in Nigeria’s correctional centres. Secondary data obtained from print and online publications were used for the paper. The paper concluded that poor funding, inadequate infrastructure facilities, shortage of facilitators/teachers, lack of instructional materials, poor support from religious institutions and non-organization institutions and poor implementation of education policies. To address these problems, the paper recommended the following: The federal, state and local government should capture funding of prison education in the budget. The government and private institutions should provide adequate instructional materials in all the correctional centres. This will help to improve quality of education in the centres. The religious institutions, private institutions, international non-organization, Philanthropists and donors should be invited to wholly support the prison education by providing educational resources like a well-equipped classroom with computers and state-of- the-art chairs, computer system, laptops, and tables for learning. The government should direct some companies to invest their Corporate Social Responsibilities on prison education for inmates. The government should provide avenue for those inmates who have completed their education to be given jobs.en-US
