Senate proposes 15 years imprisonment for anyone who pays ransom to kidnappers

Have they legislated death as penalty for kidnappers yet? No

Trust these accursed animals to always behave like the scum that they are....they criminalise/stigmatise the victim while leaving incentives/loopholes for the perpetrators

Kidnappers will begin to do charity with their kidnapped victims thanks to the ever active Nigerian senate.

Instead of them to propose how to put an end to banditry and the daily kidnapping of the poor and helpless citizens

Re: Pay Ransom To Kidnappers & Get A Minimum Of 15 Years Imprisonment - Senate Bill by barinedan(m): 10:56pm On May 19, 2021
So, in a situation where the security agencies could not rescue the victim the family should not make any attempt of securing the freedom of their love one? These senators are the most useless set of people in Nigeria, so what would be the punishment for security agencies who fail to rescue kidnap victims?

Sometimes I wonder the type of curse this country is suffering from for us to have this set of dunce as leaders?
Imagine shifting your responsibility to the masses and proposing bills to jail them for covering up your mess!
Our diversity has become a curse rather than a blessing so, let's go in our different direction and become what ever we dream to be instead of infesting others with customized stupidity as seen in each of the current senators!
I'm too shocked to understand how this emerge in someone's thinking faculty?

This is foolishness at its peak.
Now, I understand why many Nigerians don't have hope in this country. Most Nigerian leaders are very incompetent. They just go into politics in order to improve their social lives.

Can you compare the security system in UK and USA with Nigeria? But you are using these countries as examples. What a shame!

How would it be known that ransom was paid where security agencies are unable to rescue victims or identify the criminals?

Lately, it's alleged that many state governments have been paying ransom secretly to bandits. It's better to save lives and lose money than do otherwise.

Until the security agencies are able to handle the worsening Insecurity in Nigeria, government at all levels must continue to pay ransom to secure the release of innocent victims.
Thank you very much..

Na wah. Don't know what to say. Government does not provide security, disarms you while the bandits seem to be armed and likely supported. The only options Nigerians have to save loved ones is paying ranson or they face death. So when the do the needful, our security agencies that failed to protect in the first instance and could not rescue after the act then comes to arrest and procecute to jail the ransom payer for his crimes ie paying ransom to save life. Cannot figure this out

When your loved one is kidnapped, and you refused to pay because of this law, then I will take you seriously.

Ransome payment is wrong and counter productive. It saves one life to take 10more and the cycle continue. Its ransome money that is making kidnapping business go on and multiplying kidnappers, consequently multiplying victims.
In life, some few must suffer or die for the many. Ransome payment must stop...the victims now are unfortunate, but if payment of ransome stop, kidnapping will lose its appeal and stop

cheesy


The Senator made some very good points. The amount paid as ransom to kidnappers is highly exorbitant. This has led many into kidnapping because they see it as a very profitable venture.




Since their sibling hasn't being kidnapped they don't know what the victim's family had gone through...
One senator just sat down at the corner of his office and scripting nonsense.....
So many of our political leaders are making this country unfit to live in.

So somebody should choose to die instead even when you can see that the payment of ransom can give you a good chance of being released; in fact they kidnapped my uncle at about 21:00 on Tuesday night when he was driving home in Warri and they demanded N200000 so he had to call somebody they transferred the money immediately before he was released.

What a country.

African leaders are subhumans. There’s no way they’re the same humans as white people.

Rather than passing public execution by hanging for kidnappers, they want to cause more despair and hopelessness.

So if anyone is kidnapped, it’s over. What police force do we have?

African leaders are not subhuman and they are the same humans as white people.

Is just too painful that is the common man that those bandits go after. Why can't them go and kidnap those in government eating the national cake?
