On March 14, 2025, the Minister for the Interior, Muntaka Mohammed-Mubarak, received a donation of essential food supplies from the Turkish-based Human Development Association International (HUDAI) Foundation. This contribution, aimed at supporting inmates, is part of HUDAI’s annual charitable initiatives through the Ghana Prisons Service. The donated items included rice, cooking oil, tomato paste, sugar, and spaghetti.
Expressing gratitude on March 21, 2025, the minister highlighted that such contributions help alleviate the challenges faced by prisoners. He assured that the food supplies will be used as intended and encouraged other organizations to offer similar humanitarian support. “Imprisonment is not a death sentence. Providing for inmates improves their well-being and aids in their rehabilitation,” he stated, underscoring the importance of this assistance.
Speaking on behalf of Remzi Şeker, the General Coordinator of HUDAI, Project Coordinator Abdurahim Yüce reaffirmed their commitment to humanitarian service. He emphasized that their mission stems from goodwill, requesting only prayers in return for their efforts. As part of its Ramadan food distribution initiative, HUDAI has provided over 8,000 food packages to families, with special distributions for underprivileged individuals, including inmates.
The HUDAI Foundation, with support from the Turkish government, has significantly contributed to Ghana’s development. Among its achievements is the construction of the Ghana National Mosque, the second-largest mosque in West Africa, which includes various facilities such as a library and clinic. Furthermore, HUDAI has implemented clean water projects and built educational institutions to bolster the government’s efforts in these sectors.
In summary, the Human Development Association International’s support for the Ghana Prisons Service highlights the importance of humanitarian efforts in alleviating the challenges faced by inmates. The donations reflect a broader commitment to societal welfare, with ongoing initiatives that include food distribution, educational support, and infrastructure development. Such partnerships serve as a vital reinforcement to the efforts aimed at enhancing the living conditions of underprivileged communities in Ghana.
