First Lady, Oluremi Tinubu, has described kidnappers as cowards who deserve capital punishment.
She said this while reacting to the news of 200 women who were kidnapped in Borno State, and over 280 pupils and teachers kidnapped in Kaduna State.
Remi Tinubu said, “Whoever is kidnapping young people is sick, cruel, and a coward.
“Enough is enough and I call on the state governors that once we take hold of them, they deserve capital punishment.
“Why don’t they take people their size? Why are they torturing our children? What they are trying to do is kill our future.
“We all know parents, when we are old we rely on our children.
“Why would you go and take them from schools? Right now, I think enough is enough. As a former lawmaker, I believe that any one of them captured deserves capital punishment.
“They (kidnappers) are animals, they are evil and we should take them out of our midst.
“The state governors and the lawmakers should do something.”
Recall that about 200 women were reportedly kidnapped by Boko Haram terrorists in the Gamboru-Ngala and Dikwa local government areas of Borno State.
The women, who were Internally Displaced Persons, were said to have been kidnapped while they went into the bush in search of firewood.
Similar to this, on Thursday, robbers abducted around 280 students and teachers from Government Secondary School and LEA Primary School in Kuriga, Kaduna State, igniting a national outcry.
At least 280 students and teachers from both schools were reportedly taken away by the bandits on Thursday after they broke into the Kuriga region of the Chikun Local Government region in Kaduna State and began shooting at their victims.
