[size=14pt]Ekiti Assembly to Pass Law Prescribing Death Penalty for Kidnappers[/size]
Members of the Ekiti State House of Assembly have moved to pass a bill to make kidnappers die by hanging in the state.
Expressing serious views over the twin menace of kidnapping and terrorism in the country, the assembly also moves to stipulate penalty for those who pay ransom to these evil doers.
To this end, two of the three laws that were deliberated upon at the assembly’s plenary yesterday dwelt on curbing of crimes that has to do with kidnapping that has become a source of revenues for some criminals.
They were Office of the Public Defender Bill (2015) and Ekiti State Kidnap and Terrorism (Prohibition) Bill (2015.
Both successfully passed second reading and were passed to the appropriate committees to scrutinise for final passage.
The plenary, presided over by the Speaker, Hon. Kola Oluwawole, witnessed a robust debate by members on the matters.
Presenting the bills from the order paper, Deputy Leader of Business, Hon. Adeniran Alagbada, lamented the trauma victims of kidnap and their family members are often subjected to.
Also speaking on the Public Defender Bill, the Chairman, House Committee on information, Hon. Olugboyega Aribisogan, noted that the bill would afford the poor who lack financial capability to pursue their cases the opportunity to access justice.
In the same vein, the Chairman, House Committee on Health, Dr. Babajide Omotoso; Hon. Akinleye Ekundayo, Hon. Titilayo
Owolabi-Akerele, Hon. Wale Ayeni and Ayodele Fajemilehin, who also contributed to the motions on the floor, described the bills as those that would have direct positive bearing on the lives of the people of the state.
Another law, Ekiti State College of Technical and Commercial Agriculture Repeal Bill (2015), had earlier passed through first reading.
Ex-Governor Kayode Fayemi had earlier signed the bill into law to enhance the establishment of a School of Agriculture in his Isan Ekiti country home, which the assembly thought would have to be abrogated due to poor financial status of the state.

[size=14pt]GOOD OR BAD MOVE?[/size] My main concern is the danger of wrongful conviction? There are a whole lot of cases of the innocent being falsely accused and then being exonerated posthumously. And I stress this point particularly considering Nigeria's history of acting on uncorroborated evidence! the assembly also moves to stipulate penalty for those who pay ransom to these evil doers. I personally think family should have the choice to pay without penalty >.< 1 Like |
