We Will Not Execute Convicted Bokoharam Members-AGF by mile12crises: 4:14pm On Apr 08, 2016 |
The Attorney General of the Federation, Mallam Abubakar Malami, said yesterday that convicted members of the Boko Haram sect in the country could not be executed because the laws under which they were tried did not prescribe death sentence. He disclosed this at the launch of amnesty’s report on Global Death Sentences and Executions 2015, in Abuja, yesterday. The attorney-general, who was represented by Sylvester Imahanobe, also promised to work with Amnesty International to stop executition of convicted criminals in the country, if the international human rights body proposed a bill to that effect. He said: “Terrorists in Nigeria are tried under the Terrorism Prevention Act which does not carry death penalty. That is why even those Boko Haram members, who have been convicted cannot be executed because the maximum sentence prescribed by the law is life sentence.” Advertisement The AGF said he would be pleased to support any bill that came from Amnesty International on the abolition of death sentence in the country, pointing out that “studies have shown that death penalty has not stopped people from committing crimes.” Malami revealed that the country was working towards ensuring that the prison system was corrective and not punitive, as it is currently. Earlier in his remarks, the Country Director of Amnesty International, Mohammed Ibrahim, said there was a “dramatic global rise in the number of executions recorded in 2015 which saw more people put to death than at any point in the last quarter-century.” He said the surge was largely fuelled by Iran, Pakistan and Saudi Arabia, which brought the number of people executed worldwide to 1,634 people, a rise of more than 50 per cent on the year before and the highest number Amnesty International had recorded since 1989. https://www.today.ng/news/national/103269/why-nigeria-cant-execute-convicted-boko-haram-terrorists-agf |

The Attorney-General of the Federation is Abubakar Malami and Director of Amnesty is Mohammed Ibrahim. Mohammadu said an attack on boko haram is attack on the north, Muhammed now said it's illegal to execute them because they believe in one Muhammed that died a long time ago. Isn't the conspiracy very clear enough?? Buhari=bokoharam Quote me even when I am asleep. 2 Likes |

Indeed; 'an attack on BokoHaram is an attack on the North' and you know Muhamadu Buhari (the current ruler of Nigeria) is the official spokesman and unofficial leader of BokoHaram, after-all it was BokoHaram itself that officially and openly identified him as their spokesman, and he made the above statement as the official spokesman of BokoHaram. Just imagine the absurdity! The criminal justice system of the ZOO (Nigeria) prefers to try cold blooded BokoHaram murderers under a law that does not prescribe death penalty, but choose to try an advocate of self-determination/ non-violent resistance under a law that prescribes death penalty. Meaning, no matter the number of people killed or the nature or amount of atrocities committed by BokoHaram members, no member of BokoHaram will ever get the death penalty, but unarmed, peaceful, and praying IPOB member will be summarily executed by the ZOO (the Nigerian State), and everybody (including the so-called Amnesty International) carries on as if nothing happened. I only pity the BABOONS and MONKEYS who out of self-induced or congenital idiocy chose to remain perpetual slaves to the Ewusa/Fulani vagabonds, I pity them because the ZOO (Nigeria) is gonna be a damned God-forsaken place when Biafra leaves, then the BABOONS and MONKEYS will get to appreciate what it really means to be a slave in the Ewusa/Fulani ZOO 1 Like |

A country that prescribes death sentence for some one that robbed with a gun, does not prescribe same for some one that killed multitudes with bombs. Jokers! oya armed robbers, stop shooting one, please bomb many, and you will not be killed when sentenced, rather you will be locked up, and if you are lucky and one from your area, becomes the president, you will be given amnesty. Nigeria! A theatre of macabre dance. |
