On this date, July 4, 2013, Adams Oshiomhole, the
Governor of Edo State, Nigeria spoke at the second annual seminar on the
“Role of Public Complaints Commission in a democratic Nigeria’ organized by the
Public Complaint Commission, in Abuja, the governor maintained that anyone who
deliberately kill another deserves the capital punishment.
We, the
comrades of Unit 1012, encourage the Head of States around the world to learn
from Adams Oshiomhole, the Governor of Edo State, Nigeria. He signed the death
warrants for two murderers and had them hanged by the neck till dead on June
24, 2013. Altogether 4 murderers were hanged in Nigeria that day, but the other
two were hanged in other states in the country.
Adams
Oshiomhole courageously spoke out in defense of the death penalty at the second annual seminar on the “Role of Public
Complaints Commission in a democratic Nigeria’ organized by the Public
Complaint Commission, in Abuja on July 4, 2013.
We, the
comrades of Unit 1012, feel that he should be nicknamed: ‘The Rayner Goddard of
Edo State, Nigeria’. To add more icing to the cake, Adams Oshiomhole signed the
death penalty law for kidnapping on October 18
that year.
Congratulations,
Governor! You rightfully deserve the Rayner Goddard Act of Courage Award.
