Inspecting the parcel of land donated by Umunze Community, through the President General, Mr. Boniface Akanyeonu, the Anambra State Commissioner For Women and Children Affairs, Lady Ndidi Mezue, assured of the ministry’s readiness in ending the issue of lack of facility to assist children in conflict with the law, during rehabilitation period.

The Honourable Commissioner spoke affectionately of Umunze people in their support to the government of the day in Anambra State. She further explained that the centre when completed will house international standard hostel facilities, skill acquisition centre, correctional facilities, class room blocks, administrative buildings among other facilities.

The centre, according to the Honourable Commissioner, will serve as facility to provide shelter where children in conflict with the law will be rehabilitated, trained in various skills and acquire basic education before being reunited with their families.
