Public Execution Of Corrupt Politicians Will End Stealing -Jimoh Ibrahim

The Senator representing Ondo South, Barrister Jimoh Ibrahim has advocated the public execution of corrupt politicians, adding that is the only way to put an end to stealing in Nigeria

Ibrahim made this in his reaction to the public outcry following President Bola Tinubu’s new loan request.

Tinubu had written to the National Assembly on Tuesday, requesting approval for external borrowing of $2.2 billion.

However, speaking during an interview on Channels TV’ Politics Today, the senator noted that public execution of corrupt officials is the only way to end stealing in Nigeria.

When the Interviewer asked, “Borrowing in the past and why Nigerians may be pessimistic is the trust deficit in those who are handling those funds borrowed in this country that have landed in the pocket of individuals enriching themselves and their family.

“How do you then think that Nigerians should wake up one morning and then think that the nation should be impoverished the more when some of this money goes to the pocket of individuals?”

Ibrahim responded, “let me help Nigerians in that regard because of the future. I agree with you and I will come to that, but if you list 50 items to which you want to borrow $100 billion, and you bring it to the National Assembly we pass the law that anyone who spends outside the items listed in this schedule shall face public execution. Then people will run away from stealing.”
