More Nigerians still to be executed in Indonesia - Hon. Abike Dabiri

The Chairperson House Committee on Diaspora matters, Abike Dabiri-Erewa said their are more Nigerians waiting to be executed in Indonesia. Speaking on Channels TV News at 10 last night, Hon Abike said a federal government delegation in which she was part of in 2008 visited Indonesia and found there were 21 Nigerians who were on death row in Indonesia for drug related offenses. She said nothing can be done as its the law in Indonesia. She said every 5m you walk, a sign is displayed saying the penalty for drug trafficking is death

      And it saddens me to know that despite death penalty as a form of purnishment, more will still traffic drugs. Its a pity.

    It is even boldly indicated in cap and red across the full length of your visa to any south East Asian country that penalty for drug trafficking is death, you can't walk 5km in that country without seeing the sign, we are just stupid people, when you know the law, why do u still do it? Nigeria has no business begging for anyone, we actually need laws like this in Nigetia for corruption

    'She said every 5m you walk, a sign is displayed saying the penalty for drug trafficking is death'- THERE YOU GO, NIGERIANS- LOOK BEFORE YOU LEAP AND DON'T DABBLE IN DRUGS BECAUSE INDONESIA IS NOT LIKE NIGERIA- YOU WILL BE SENTENCED TO DEATH FOR DRUGS AND NO AMOUNT OF BRIBES OR PRESSURE FROM THE NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT WILL HELP YOUR CAUSE IF YOU ARE CAUGHT AND JAILED IN INDONESIA FOR DRUGS OFFENCES- BEST TO STAY AT HOME IN NIGERIA AND MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS!!!

      Oh so you don't think the death penalty is a bit too barbaric?
      NAwa for some humans. How many of them were really given a fair trial or access to a lawyer? Do you know how many of them might have been tricked into carrying it also? Pls do some research before you come here trying to sound super smart.
      And I hate when people say drug dealers ruin lives. NO THEY DONT. Addicts ruin their lives themselves. If they don't sell, someone else would. And if it's not coke, heroin, etc, they will always find another fix. So PLS those that overdose have no one to blame but themselves. These ones Jst exploit it to make money. Who is to blame really?

    I don't believe the President of Indonesia had any choice but to follow through with the death penalty. Everyone knows that is the price to pay for dealing in drugs in most country. These people knew the risks and they were prepared to take it. The sad part was the fact they had already done 10 years imprisonment, perhaps due to their appeal system. Never the less, Indonesia has it's own laws and international people must abide by your laws if they travel to your lands. I apologies for other Nigerians that may disagree with me, as I am sure there are many people in your own country that also have differing opinions.

    We have very very long way to go in this country, not just to fix the country but educate our ppl properly. Do anyone happen to notice that some of this guy killed where tricked and some still on death row were also tricked??? Only few ppl will have the gut to break the law of a country when they are fully aware of it . Some of us should get the fact into our head( some of them were tricked)

    Its sad to see people executed for drug trafficking. We need to understand that this is the law of a country. the drug peddlers knew the consequences before they embarked on the journey and they paid dearly for it.
    Let us discuss issues that will move our country forward and not dwell on disgraceful issues like this. My condolence to the affected families.

    Indonasia can as well start killing cigaret sellers because it is boldly written on every cigaret that smokers are liable to die young. They should also kill those that own tobaco companies. They should deal with those that buy drugs not those that sell. Does anybody force smokers to smoke? Did anybody force you to pluk igbo leaves and use it to cook beans and be high? Common let's be realistic here! Although i am not in support of the traffickers but death is way too harsh.
