The Tanzania Prison Services (TPS) is implementing a 15-year strategic plan to ensure that its officers can work in any country in the world.
The plan was unveiled here yesterday by a consultant responsible
for reform in prisons, Dr Haji Semboja, when he presented a subject on
the importance of improving the force during the annual general meeting
of senior prison officers held here.
Dr Semboja, who is a lecturer at the University of Dar es Salaam
(UDSM), said in order to reform prisons there has to be a special
college that will produce graduates with diplomas and master degrees on
issues related to prisons.
He said the college should also be recognised on the international
level so that its graduates would be able to work anywhere in the
world.
“If we are determined to reform prisons, people should acquire
education on them apart from other professions. Thus we must have a
special college which will provide the training up to master degree
level,” said Dr Semboja.
He said the plan will enable prisons to dispatch officers even when
needed by the United Nations to work in any country. Dr Semboja said
such a plan has also been implemented in other African countries in the
past ten years. Thus it was now high time for Tanzania to implement
similar reforms in prisons so that it can be recognised
internationally.
The Commissioner of Prisons, John Minja, said currently the TPS was
implementing several reforms. They include looking for an investor who
would work as a partner in order to increase production in prisons and
hence reduce the government budget for prisoners.
He said in implementing the plans, the TPS was putting final
touches to irrigation infrastructure for projects which have water
sources so as to shift from depending on rains.
