No Governor In Nigeria Has The Rights To Order For Floggging Of Citizens .. by samadot: 8:29am On Apr 24, 2020
Just listened to Ebonyi State Gov #DaveUmahi on TV ask Enforcement Officials to flog citizens on the streets over #covid19lockdown violation. No, Governor, You are Wrong! You have no power to violate the Constitution & inflict indignity or inhuman, degrading treatment on Citizens..
The Anti Torture Act 2017 makes it a criminal offence for the police and others to subject a person to torture, inhuman or degrading treatment.
Section 34 of the Constitution states that no person shall be subjected to torture or to inhuman or degrading treatment.
So Mr Governnor of ebonyi state,allow mobile courts and the violators have there day in court.
