Shameful. A woman has lost her child.

For those that did not harm to their victims, I feel that this is unfair.

I dont feel sorry for rogues. I rather feel sorry for their victims.

That is fantastic news. Hopefully more states will follow suit.

I doubt if killing kidnappers will stem the trend -armed robbers have faced death for years, yet no respite. Killing doesn't address the root cause of the problems.

We should be dwelling killing the rogue politicians whose actions are breeding kidnappers.kidnapping can only thrive like that in a failed and rogue state.It is one the easiest crime to burst by a legitimate police force and one the hardest to get away with successfully as a criminal.

you think a sitting head of state rounding up former leaders and executing them is a revolution  cheesy cheesy  you call that people power

actually, its called a purge - stalin did a lot of that in his time, though iit was of his percieved enemies


we had an administration/junta that tried to do just that idiagbon/buhari

and sadly nigerians were very happy to see them go



Call it what you like, its the aftermath that counts. Are Ghanians presently complaining? Note my reference to Ghana, all thats required is an individual (or group of individuals) willing to steer the Nation in the right direction.

By that i presume its what other posters have been deemed the politicians. So if it takes 50yrs to breed a new generation of politicians, Nigerians should live in fear that long?

This is not a matter of being a judge. Its as clear as black and white. It is justice and obtains worldwide apart from Nigeria that is where people want amnesty for all criminals, half-baked justice for kidnappers, etc.

I say it again kill them all for all i care. I wont lose sleep if all kidnappers and their active supporters in Nigeria are executed.

killing them would forced others to desist from such terrible action.if you wanna know,find out if armed robbey didnt came to level zero when OPC took over from the police and conduct instant jungle justice by themselves.they had information on all potential armed robbers and pick them up at random for execution.most of them fled lagos out fear of being killed.so killing kidnappers would serve as deterent to potential ones.

I wonder. Actually, I'm in a dilemma, on one side, I support that these kidnappers be killed. But, on the other side, I see it as heating their small face with the big hand of the law. Don't get me wrong, these guys didn't just wake up one day and decided that they want to start kidnapping, it is as a result of frustration which the rogues in government has caused them. come to think of it, where did they get their arms & ammunitions? the useless people in power gave them to campaign cause riot when they wanted to get the power.

Now, they've used them to get the power they wanted and abandoned them, they in turn found a way of utilising the ammunition in their hands.(kidnapping or stealing)

My point is if we're not ready to punish those that primarily caused this problem, why attack the less privileged that were used?

There is a poll now & we can vote, I guess that will make the statistics better.

That's not the only way, 10 to 20 years imprisonment is another way.

That is much more costly. Nigerians can barely feed themselves; the government can barely feed Nigerians. 10 to 20 years imprisonment costs more than Nigeria can pay. Simple public execution satisfies monetary constraints.

Killing them wont stop them. They'll just employ a more sophisticated way to kidnap.

You cant stop a hungry man from trying to find food. Take bkbabe09 for an example, he once told me of how he wakes up early in the morning to dig through people's trash for food and soda cans.

Should he be killed? well, what I know is that, if he shouldn't be killed, it will be a foul to kill those hungry kidnappers.

Or who's crime is more between them ?

Then thes system will employ more sophisticated ways to kill them. Besides how can someone already killed arise and start kidnapping again? grin

If they are hungry they should go and farm or push truck. Their problem is not hunger but its one of laziness and greed. Remember those who live by the sword shall surely die by the sword.

A smart woman once told me that there were times farmers could survive on their harvest. That time is gone. And we're not only talking suffering to food when talk about hunger. If na food, I can just steal food from my neighbors farm one night, but humans survive on other stuff. Shelter, medicine, food, money etc etc.

The kidnapping thing is getting too much in the Eastern/Southern part of Nigeria especially. You dunno how nerve-racking it is. I'm even scared to go to my village. Until it happens to your loved one, you'll probably not see the intensity of the damage being done by these unrepentant kidnappers. They need to learn a lesson.
Re: Should Kidnappers Be Killed by THEAMAKA(f): 7:42pm On Jul 15, 2010
You were the one advocating anarchy to correct perceived societal ills.

Kidnappers no longer discriminate when it comes to their victims. These have included few months old babies to 90 plus great grand parents.

The main drive for kidnapping remains seemingly EASY AND QUICK MONEY and nothing else. This money is not given back to the poor, ill, orphans etc. Rather these hoodlums live an extravagant lifestyles and spend their loot on women, booze and fast cars. How are they different from the politicians they are fighting against?

I might be going to visit this Christmas, but my only fear is kidnapping. if not, i would already be making preparations.

I say it again greed and quick easy money remain their main drive. If they live according to their means them no go die of longer throat. Not every body should drive a hummer jeep, or live in a duplex, chop suya tdb, or marry agbani.
Re: Should Kidnappers Be Killed by ePAYSYSTEM(m): 9:07pm On Jul 15, 2010
These guys have double intentions that are both deadly.
* They demand for money that is outrageous that the second intention is always your fear.
* They Kill the victim as the next option if the first fails.

So the fact that they have killing as an option, they need be killed.

Have you heard of ransom taking?
Its not completely kidnapping but related. They call you on phone and tell you to deposit so so so and so amount at a particular place that could include bank or face death as the price for default.

Kidnappers are in most cases assassins.
My Uncle have been their guest for 3 times. They told him that they were actually sent to kill him but they decided to get more money from him than his enemies. They again went to the other party after they didnt kill him, received money again. It happened 3 times untill they had to tell my uncle to leave town.

Under this mindset, I think I have no option of suggestion except KILL THEM when you catch them, period!
