Governors to sign death warrant

To reduce nagging problem of prison congestion, National Economic council has nudged the governors to sign death warrant of condemned prisoners on death row.

The prisons are congested and there is an urgent need to depopulate the number of inmates.Death penalty is still in Nigeria constitution, governors has the power to commute death sentence to life in imprisonment .
It is not likely any of our governor will yield to this call from NEC, they are core politicians and signing a death warrant will not increase their internally generated revenue.

How we can have effective policing system.

News have it that 80 percent of Nigeria policemen are appointed as private security details to some influential Nigerians. As a matter of fact, we have not adequate number of policemen and there is need for more. The remaining 20 percent police about 80 percent Nigerians, the elite among us are about 20 percent of the populations. No wonder armed robbers most of the time have a field day. The recent killings in Benue went on for long hours, seven men of Fulanis extraction were burnt alive and no one could stop them, where are the policemen?. For effective policing system, government should do the needful, you will be surprise some unscrupulous individuals have private police protection. No country grow like this, government have responsibilities to protect lives of its citizens.
