Nigeria- Former Minister of Petroleum Resources, Prof. Tam David-West, says politicians who rig elections in Nigeria deserved to be given a death sentence, Punch reports.
“I have said that election riggers should get death sentences. Rigging election is worse than armed robbery. If an armed robber can be sentenced to death, election riggers must face a similar punishment.
“That is the only way we could have peaceful, free and fair elections in this country. It (election) was a sham. From all I heard, in Buguma, Asari-Toru, there was no election as a result of sporadic shooting in the area. Surprisingly, INEC released a result.
“It is wrong for anyone to say that the conducted election is good. Is it that some people see the deaths as goodness? If an election is fraught with violence and other forms of malpractices, if it is not corrected, it would stain the performance of INEC.”
