Crime Scene can be more complex than you think.

Imagine a scenario where a thug from PDP, APC or any other party throws a snatched ballot box at you who was innocently standing by, while trying to escape from being gunned down by the army. Unfortunately, one of the soldiers didn't see through the situation and suddenly opens fire on you (God forbid), can your corpse defend your innocence?

So they should kill the crime and not the life.
That statement is just to threaten them,do you know that PMB had meeting with all security's chiefs after he made the statement
GOD BLESS NIGERIA

Unfortunately for the people who support this, they will be the ones who end up dead. By then they can’t even see how they were wrong by championing extrajudicial killings. Because they will already be dead. Killed by the very lawlessness they encourage

Ahead of the 2019 presidential election, Ben Murray-Bruce, the Senator representing Bayelsa East has warned politicians against shedding blood of Nigerians.

Bruce on Tuesday urged the military and other security agencies to protect Nigerians and prosecute offenders rather than shed blood.

The Bayelsa lawmaker, on his Twitter page, said this in reference to statement by President Muhammadu Buhari ordering the military to ‘kill’ any ballot box snatcher.

According to him, the Armed forces must realize that “they are protectors of Nigerians.”

Bruce wrote: “Nobody’s political ambition is worth the blood of any citizen. Nobody at all. We must direct the armed forces to realize that they are the protectors of the Nigerian people.

“Under no circumstances must they kill, maim, or injure the Nigerian people. Prosecute instead of killing.”

Nigerians!
We need 2 things
(1) critical mental assessment
(2) new constitution that enforce rule of law and order
Crazy individuals coming out to say " no don't kill ballot thiefs, prosecute them" and tons of bigoted and hatred driven Nigerians agree with it
Following due process doesn't work in Nigeria, at least not in all cases,
According to the weak and controversial constitution, a ballot thief is to be sentenced to 24months in jail, and I can boldly say thousands of miscreants in this country are ready to do the time in return for stealing ballot boxes for a saddening price as low as #20000,
But one thing I've learned about my beloved country people is if you want a desired and effective change , you must enforce it which is why the President's directive is what we need to check ballot theft
Again, steal a ballot and pay with your miserable life

Dont mind the thiefs. PMB position is even supported by law....


This is the position of the Constitution.

“Section 33(2)(a) and (c) of the 1999 constitution says:
(1)Every person has a right to life, and no one shall be deprived intentionally of his life, save in execution of the sentence of a court in respect of a criminal offence of which he has been found guilty in Nigeria.
(2) A person shall not be regarded as having been deprived of his life in contravention of this section, if he dies as a result of the use, to such extent and in such circumstances as are permitted by law, of such force as is reasonably necessary -
(a) for the defense of any person from unlawful violence or
(b) for the defense of property:
(c) for the purpose of suppressing a riot, insurrection or mutiny."
“If a person armed with dangerous weapons like bombs, guns, knives and machetes wants to snatch a ballot box or electoral materials he can be shot dead for the defense of the ballot box and election materials which is the foundation upon which our democracy is built and which is a property of the Nigerian people.
He can be shot dead for unleashing violence and death on INEC officials and innocent voters.
He can be shot dead because he has engaged in a riot against democracy.
He can be shot dead because he has engaged in mutiny and insurrection against democracy and the will of the people to elect people of their choice into public office.”

GOV. WIKE: If you rig election or snatch ballot boxes in Rivers State you'll die.

WAILERS: Yes, I hail you, my Governor. Kill everyone of them. Anyone that manipulates the electoral process must die. He won’t leave this our PH alive.

GOV. FAYOSE: Anyone who brings his rigging madness to Ekiti State will not go home alive. He will die on the spot. In fact, Ado Ekiti will be on fire

WAILERS: That's my hero. The brave man of Ekiti. Yes, kill anyone you see snatching ballot box. Oloshi !

PRESIDENT BUHARI: Anyone who snatches ballot box is risking his life. He could be killed.

WAILERS: Arrhhh! Why? Is that what the law says? Buhari is a tyrant. We reject this recourse to impunity. Say no to dictatorship.
Yeye man! Dictator ! Killer!

See idiotic zombie.
Yes people were killed and we all know who orchestrated the killings during GEJ's Government, the same person is now the president yet he can't stop what he started. Now a deadlier group which happens to be same man's kinsmen have swept the entire country with massive slaughter yet no arrest has been made. What is really the plan of you and Buhari? Is there any hidden agenda you want to complete this second term that has made you to still want same people you have killed to still vote for you, please tell us let's take cover..

The Military are kept for External Security Defence. Whenever and Wherever they are mistakenly seen with The Police, in a Democracy, they can never prosecute civilian offenders, but can arrest as part of their Security Responsibility and immediately handover the offenders to the Police to prosecute.

In as much as I don't support ballot box snatching, I think the directive of shooting will make it more violent. The ballot snatchers, knowing that they may be shot, will come more prepared and may even shoot the police first. What if it becomes a shootout between them and the security agents, what will happen to people around the polling booth?
