Former Minister of Information and Communications, Prof Dora Akunyili has expressed support for capital punishment for corrupt practices in order to transform the country.

Akunyili said this while speaking as a guest lecturer at the 7th lecture of the College of Natural and Applied Sciences, Bells University of Technology, Otta, Ogun State, where she presented a paper titled ‘National Transformation: The Challenge of our Time’.

She said that the desired change in the country was being prevented by social vices such as corruption, insecurity, poor leadership among others.

She said, “In China, it is death penalty for corruption. I believe if we are really serious about fighting corruption, there is the need to insert harsher clauses to make corruption less attractive, just like they do in China.

“Once, one, two, three, four corrupt people are executed for corruption, some others who have such tendency will definitely fall in line.”

Akunyili said that government refusing to punish corruption was as good as it promoting corruption. More: http://dailypost.com.ng/2013/04/04/akunyili-supports-death-penalty-as-punishment-for-corruption/
