Nigerian Lawmakers Reject Castration As Punishment For Rape | Sahara Reporters This came after a member, James Faleke, recommended that persons found guilty of rape should be castrated in response to rising cases across Nigeria. HouseNGR READ MORE:

Members of Nigeria's House of Representatives have voted against castration as a form of punishment for sexual offenders in the country.In response, Speaker of the House, Femi Gbajabiamila, asked what would happen to an older female, who raped a younger male. Instead of punishment for sex offenders, the House resolved that members should be dressed in black on the next legislative day in honor and solidarity for those, who had been raped.

Recall that an undergraduate of University of Benin, Vera Uwaila Omozuwa, was recently raped and killed inside a church where she went to study. Similarly, Barakat Bello, a student of Science Laboratory Technology at the Federal College of Animal Health and Production, Ibadan, Oyo State, was attacked, raped, and stabbed to death at Akinyele area of Ibadan by yet to be identified men.

On Wednesday, SaharaReporters detailed how residents in Nguru area of Yobe State expressed anger after the Nigeria Police Force set free a man, who serially raped a seven-year-old refugee girl.

On what ground was it rejected? Its clear a lot of them making decisions are rapists !!! Our leaders aren't ready to deal with this issue head on and until they are, innocent victims will continue to be traumatised by this disgusting act ! NoMeansNo justiceforallrapevictims

Cus it could be them or their sons carrying out the act!

I go for castration

Why are they rejecting castration, it shows we are not ready to solve the rape cases In this country... 😔😔😔

Castration is not the answer . i think life in prison will do just right but should be applied to all ,nt just to pple without connection.

Under Hammurabi code of law which is one of the most oldest forms of law in the society an eye for an eye is simply an equal punishment for a crime. Is castration an equal punishment for rape ?

What’s wrong with people! Castration bawo

Who suggested that in the first place

I guess they reject it cos some of them are culprits or their sons are.

After RAPING NIGERIA how will they bring problems for theirselves useless old fools

What will be the evidence for rape?

Because even oga on top is guilty. Lol

If na to use N900 Trillion for cleaning of National Assembly dem no for reject,no b 9ja we dey?

What then could possibly be the punishment for a rapist?

They should be sent to prison to spend the rest of their life there with harrdddd labour..

death might suit better

Hmmm...at least life imprisonment.
