Muhammadu Buhari, on Wednesday, signed the Nigerian Correctional Service Bill into law.
The Act has also repealed the Nigerian Prisons Service Act.
Ita Enang, a former senator representing Akwa Ibom State and Senior Special Assistant to the President on National Assembly, revealed the development to State House correspondents in Abuja on Wednesday.
Â
Enang said that with the signing, Nigerian Prisons Service would henceforth be called the Nigerian Correctional Service.Â
