Hmmm Sentencing him to death is way too harsh. Though I must say without sentiment, that Jackson should have left him alone,immediately after subduing him, rather than killing him, such act reek of premeditated murder.

Noted , another banana republic loading. To defend yourself against intruders and trespassers is now a crime. Mr president should use executive order to cancel the judgement outrightly. This is purely ....

Curse be unto this rubber stamp judgement and those who judged it. angry
Everything is base on confessional statement on how he wrote it. The judge might have dismiss his oral statement but stick with confessional statement that he killed the herder. Even though there were evidence in all

My prayer is that herdsmen issue will not cause civil war in Nigeria. I still don't see any reason why herdsmen are free to kill and others must not scratch their body. Let them stop taking their cows to people's farm.
It will surely cause civil war, all the Fulani murderes have been released quietly, they think we didn't know. Tinubu is still scared of these people

Sunday Jackson is being sentenced to death because he is not a Muslim not because he killed his attacker. Injustice at its highest.

So what this means is that if headmen come for you is either they kill you or you kill them and get sentenced to death, our judicial system in this country is a joke

God is using the herdsmen as an answer to prayers of some of us. Without a national problem that will lead to disintegration what else will. I pray they continue so that ethnic cleansing will begin soon leading to the long sought for disintegration. The North has been holding us down in the south.
Abeg, stop that nonsense prayer o.

bros na wa to you o! How could Jackson have left him alone?? It was either he killed his attacker or his attacked would have killed him. One of them was going to die either way.

So if thief enter your house and in return you over power him & loses his life. The defendant who was peacefully sleeping at night will be given a death sentence? Should you just wait and watch the assailant take ones life and maybe your loved one. That judgement lacks credibility. May God judge the final judge.

This is a 'somehow' judgement. angry

These are instances where the governor should commute the death sentence to pardon in no time. smiley

Fake news!

It looks like some people are still upset about the judicial system and the outcome of the election that brought Bola Ahmed Tinubu to power. Now, they’re spreading fake news, claiming that the Supreme Court upheld a death sentence for someone named Sunday Jackson for killing an armed herdsman.

There’s absolutely no truth to this story, it’s just another attempt to stir up emotions and push a false narrative. Always double-check your sources before believing or sharing such claims.
Are you mad??

He died of wounds from the fight, not instantly.

What kinda nonsense is this?

So herdmen and terrorists are now special citizens in Nigeria? If the demonic herdsman had killed the farmer the case would have been swept under the carpet as usual.

Re: Supreme Court Upholds Sunday Jackson's Death Sentence For Killing Armed Herdsman by ogaemma: 9:25am On Mar 11, 2025
Dey play.
The NIGERIA constitution is a Shari'a Constitution.
The truth is that the outside world sees NIGERIA as a Muslim State.
Nigeria is officially a Member of OIC.
An Islamic Organization with membership from only Islamic States.
How did we land there?
In the NIGERIA Constitution, Shari'a is mentioned - 73 times
Islam is mentioned - 28 times
Grand KADI is mentioned - 54 times
Muslim is mentioned - 10 times.
No single mention of Christ or Christianity.
12 Core Northern States is ruled by Shari'a.
For your information, the FCT which is the center of Unity in Nigeria is under the Shari'a Law.
This Law gives an unexplainable immunity to the Fulanis.
The more you look the less you see .
We need a new People's CONSTITUTION.
We need a Judicial reforms.

I believe he might have also stated in his confessional state the motive for his action. It was clearly self defense. Well, I'm sure his religion contributed to the verdict given him.

This is a clear case of miscarriage of justice and it casts out any shadow of doubt that indeed the SC has gone bananas!



Self-defense is a provision of the Constitution (the grundnorm) which the SC has turned on its head in this case.



If the SC continues on this shamefully mind-boggling trajectory, it could attract nothing other than opprobrium unto itself.



This is why most State Governors are reluctant in signing the death sentence.



It's one's fervent hope and belief that the State Governor would withhold appending his signature to this glaring case of travesty of justice.



Sunday Jackson must not die!
