ISMALIC CLERIC PRESCRIBES CAPITAL PUNISHMENT FOR TREASURY LOOTERS IN NIGERIA

He decried the spate of corruption in Nigeria and urged President Muhammadu Buhari not to relent in the anti-corruption war, stressing that capital punishment for corrupt practice or long jail terms for high profile personalities would serve as deterrent to others.

The cleric urged politicians to be truthful and accountable and not to fail those who entrusted them with their mandate, pointing out the need for the Government to look inwards and initiate programmes and policies that would reduce the level of penury and hunger in the land.
