Always allow your tongue to connect to your brain before you add sound to its movement.
If only you know what it means to be in the kidnappers' custody, you will understand why they sometimes negotiate.
Terrorists use ransom to buy more guns, and the kidnapping continues to your grand children generation.

You've got to commend the senate for this ingenious breakthrough of finally declaring banditry and kidnapping as terrorism. It didn't take the USA's involvement at all. Brilliant buffoonery.

What of diversion of public fund to private account?
Does that not worth death sentence too?

Long overdue....i don't know what took them this long.
Northern elements and their religious leanings prevented it. Now fear of Trump invasion has made them sit up.

Government in collaboration with the north are encouraging insecurity in the north and middle belt. They call these series of crime different names and to make the matter worst they say they are using non kinetic solution. Meaning that they are paying this people for committing heneous crime. So the guys have seen these crimes as a way of cashing out for northern youths.

This could lead to a serious problem for this country because by the time southerner and middle belt youths join the crime created by the north, kasala go burst o. The northern youths currently doing kidnapping, bokoharam, banditory and similar crimes believe they have an exclusive right to such crimes but this is a big lie. Anybody who have access to weapons can do the crime even better than the northern youth.

I hope government is giving this a consideration.

I know understand this sentence very: ( no judge should overturn or reduce the sentence without any option of fine.)

I thought is suppose to be ( no judge should overturn or reduce the sentence with any option of fine)

The problem with Nigeria leaders is that they think, that Nigerians are mumu. What is meaning of shouting dead sentence to a kidnappers and give option to reduce the sentence with option of fine. Who is deceiving who? If Trump say disgrace country we react.

Who do this to Nigeria... Where is the law. Option of fine from the kidnapped ransom? Is easy to believe is typing mistake but will be surprise when the issue raises in court.

More like a shoot to kill at sight order. Why waste time on a judicial process when the outcome is death?

When will they pass death penalty for corrupt politicians stealing our money?

Death penalty that governors will be afraid to sign the warrant? Awaiting death inmates in all the Nigerian prisons constitues about 25%, yet the numbers kept increasing and all the governors have refused to sign their death warrant. Nonsense!

What about corruption? Without the death penalty for corruption in high places Nigeria is going nowhere. But I know they are all guilty or potentially guilty so they won't try such.

Good move... while this may not completely eliminate kidnapping and banditry, it would reduce it.
Re: Senate Declares Kidnapping, Banditry As Terrorism, Approves Death Penalty by grandstar(m): 11:04pm On Nov 26, 2025
This is just naive.

The problem has never been the severity of the punishment.

The problem is that perpetrators know they won't be caught and punished. The clear up for these crimes is poor.

Achieve a clear up rate of at least 80% and lock them up these criminals, and trust me, the numbers would plummet before you say "Jack Robinson."

The bandits and kidnappers, especially the former are so vrazen that they believe they are untouchable.

It's only in Nigeria that national assembly praise president or Thierselves for doing what they are supposed to do.

It's what you are paid for, it's your obligation and responsibility even the reason why you are there

I have never heard other countries like the western countries praising Thier president because he did what he's elected for.

But in Nigeria, we praised our elected officials whenever they contrust roads and other things as if that was not the reason they occupied the position when they are not doing it with Thier individual money.

Why are they waking up now? The kind of raging incompetence that those sluggards in Abuja are decked with is unprecedented.

So because Tinubu is pulling their police guards off, they are rattled.
