Ajayi, who is the Ayanperuwa of Sotubo, Ijagba, Sagamu, was one of the pro-democracy activists who fought the military over the annulment of the June 12, 1993 presidential election won by the late MKO Abiola.
He believed that without such a tough sanction, corruption would continue to thrive in the country.
The monarch said corruption had become like a circus show, with the accused becoming popular once arrested by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.
He said, "Somebody stole N100bn and you take him to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission. Immediately EFFC arrests you, you have become one of the most important persons in this country. These billions are still with him.
"All those who stole money in this country are still moving around. The only person who was punished was Bode George.All the probes they have conducted, which one has succeeded?
"The solution is that anybody found guilty of corruption should be sentenced to death. Death penalty is the solution to the problem."

ReplyDeleteI second!!!
ReplyDeleteIs okay, but what about the armed robbers?
ReplyDeletenow people are talking
ReplyDeleteseconded wholeheartedly, 95% of the armed robbery is out of frustration, once corruption is control, armed robbery will reduce to the bear-rest minimum. Death penalty for corruption, yes, we support. Give our opinion a thought pls.
ReplyDeletePraise be to Almighty Allah, Who guided the Traditional Ruler to voice out what the so-called Lawmakers will never talk about.
ReplyDeleteOur lives were far better under our Natural Rulers when it was taboo to be associated with crimes in our societies.
Comparing millions of Nigerians dying as a result criminal acts of looters & arm robbers, the only way to return peace & progress to our great country is public execution of these devils among us.
No religion shows mercy on criminals. So if we need peace in Nigeria, clean the country off these evils.
Why is China leading today?
Why is Nigeria backward today?
Good Solution. During Constitution amendment, somebody suggested death penalty, but he was shouted down.
ReplyDeleteI 100% agree this shld b passed to law ASAP
ReplyDeletei strongly agree with this suggestion it will greatly reduce corruption in Nigeria, though our law maker will never consider it because they are involve. but is the best for Nigeria to move forward.
ReplyDeletei hope it will work because our so called leader are the real criminers and should be punished if fined guity,that is if the judges are not corrupt too.
