It baffles me to see Abia state government declare amnesty for repentant kidnappers. I think that this country is in trouble. very soon repentant prostitute, repentant 419ner, repentant killer etc will come up for amnesty.

Some people that decided to cause harm to people to enrich themselves are now to be granted amnesty in the name of repentance.

If they repent from kidnapping, they should just stop it and go and make peace with their God and humanity, than coming up for another government funding in the name of amnesty after unleashing terror on innocent citizen.

I think that these criminal should be prosecuted rather than granting them amnesty.

I agree.

Is this amnesty deal really coming just from the state, or from the federal government? We should have seen this coming though. I mean if the Federal was all too willing to grant amnesty to kidnappers in niger delta areas, it only makes sense that petty(not related to major groups like MEND) kidnappers in surrounding zones will want their piece of the pie.
