Education Ministry commends teacher unions for suspending strike; schools resume today

The Ghana Prisons Service has been lauded by the Ministry of Trade, Agribusiness and Industry for utilizing creative arts to foster inmate rehabilitation, skill development, and economic empowerment. Deputy Minister Sampson Ahi, speaking on behalf of Trade Minister Elizabeth Ofosu-Adjare, emphasized art's potential as a potent tool for human transformation, mutual understanding, and the acknowledgment of shared humanity.

During the inaugural Director-General and Adehyee’s Art Exhibition, Ahi stressed that correctional endeavors should transcend mere confinement, empowering inmates with practical skills, restoring their self-confidence, and preparing them for economic prospects and successful reintegration into society. Ahi further highlighted the transformative capacity of Ghana's creative arts sector to create employment, spur entrepreneurship, and bolster national development.

He advocated for such exhibitions to evolve into enduring venues for talent discovery, public-private collaborations, and the commercialization of artworks crafted by inmates.
