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.
Adams Oshiomhole
