Bello Matawalle To Introduce Death Sentence For Reckless Drivers by hakeem4(op): 10:11am On Aug 30, 2020

Governor Bello Matawalle of Zamfara State has promised to reintroduce serious punitive measures of death for reckless drivers in the state following the accident that claimed 16 lives on Wednesday evening.
The accident occurred when a truck lost control and rammed into four vehicles conveying supporters of Matawalle along Gusau/Funtua Road.

The governor made this known when he led his cabinet members and the management of BUA Group to a condolence visit to the Emir of Gusau, Alhaji Ibrahim Bello, on Saturday.

He announced a donation of N2m to families of each of the deceased, who had a wife and N1.5m to families of those unmarried among them.

The governor further declared that he will put the next of kins of each of the victims on a monthly allowance of N50,000 each.

He said his administration will introduce speed limit gauge on highways as well as weight measurement on trucks and drug tests on drivers in order to guard against rough and reckless driving, which usually ended in fatalities.

Matawalle noted that the measures had become necessary so that drivers and their families will no longer think they will have it easy if they kill anyone, adding that the lives of citizens of the state were more valuable than any other thing.

He urged management of BUA company to call their drivers to order and caution them on acceptable speed limit.

Lol .it seems a bit harsh but on the other hand if we take a look at the number of avoidable deaths from reckless driving, one would find it comfortable but the thing is government convoys and security agencies are the most guilty of reckless driving

But once the reckless driver is confirmed to be driving for any terrorist organization tormenting them, if caught he'll be pampered & given a coat of many colours (asoebi), for his photo shoot.

"Death Sentence" Funny! So after a reckless driver survives an accident, he will be killed and sent back to the land of the dead he narrowly escaped? cheesy

Death Death Death what of 5 months or a year maximum jail term and heavy fine included if nobody is killed or brutally injured? ha!!!!!!!

I think if it could be reduced to a year, with bone cracking fine or more years if fine conditions are not met that would be fair and should be made a national law especially in Lagos.... Those danfo drivers in Lagos are psychiatric prospective candidates

We don't have to always kill/ shed blood unless life is taken or rendered useless.

If the reckless driving led to life loss and the it was investigated and discovered that the driver is at fault and not some problem with the car.... More than death would really be better... You can't be living when you knowingly killed and render lives useless.

I pray the FG will follow this too. We need strict law to curb many things in Nigeria. You could imagine someone after drinking alcohol, he ruined a whole family, came out from his car and the next thing the bastard would say is where is my phone.
