Don’t kill politicians who steal billions – Ndume gives condition for death penalty

Chief Senate Whip Senator Ali Ndume has stated that he would not back the death penalty for corrupt politicians who embezzle millions or billions of dollars, only those who embezzle trillions.

Ndume observed that people had the most significant impact on political corruption in Nigeria.

He hinted that there might not be dire repercussions.

While acknowledging that politicians were corrupt, the senator also provided resources to the general public.

He said, “If you compare us, politicians, to all the corruption, it is very small. Our corruption is people-driven,” he told Channels Television.

“If you steal it, you will go and share it with the people. If you don’t, you are not coming back for four years. There is no reason for stealing.

“I have been to the National Assembly, I can’t say because we are on TV now and not telling the truth.

“If the death penalty is supposed to be included in corruption, I will support it but you don’t go and kill someone that stole one million or one billion, no. But someone who steals one trillion of government money should be killed.”
