Ondo State leaders want kidnappers to face the death penalty after courts find them guilty. Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa made this decision during a monthly meeting with his team on Saturday. Attorney-General Kayode Ajulo spoke for the governor and explained the new punishment plan. The state government hopes this harsh penalty will stop criminals from taking people for money. Officials believe stronger laws will make residents feel safer across the area.
Kidnapping cases have increased dramatically throughout the state recently. Many victims died even after families paid large amounts of money to criminals. Ajulo pointed out that kidnapping and gang violence create serious dangers for everyone. These crimes hurt normal people and destroy peace throughout communities. The government wants to fight back against these terrible acts.
State lawyers will send new proposals to lawmakers very soon. The House of Assembly must vote on these changes before they become official law. Ajulo stressed that tougher legal rules will scare criminals away from committing these acts. The government plans to improve safety conditions for all people living there. Death sentences represent the strongest possible response to kidnapping crimes.
