People believe that capital punishment is going out of fashion

People believe that capital punishment is going out of fashion, but the Lagos state House of Assembly recently passed a law imposing death sentence on kidnappers… What do you expect us to do when kidnapping is driving investors away from the country? Even the Bible and Quran say those who kill should be killed. What the law even states is that it is case, it is those whose captives die in their custody that would be killed. There is also this belief that the 2017 budget of Lagos state, which is N812 billion is too ambitious based on past experiences… That is fallacy. When we were reviewing the activities of the past year, we discovered that no state government in Nigeria performed like the Lagos state government. It is not just by mouth, it is physical; the manifestation is there. Everywhere you go, you see that there is new Lagos with a new look. With this year's budget, you would see the result. Even N1 trillion is not enough to solve the problem of the state in one year. I know we will get there.
