Vandals are Terrorosts and deserve a DEATH Penalty - Senator David Mark

The Senate President David Mark has advocated the death penalty for vandals, saying that vandals are terrorists and should be punished as such to deter others from such economic sabotage.

Mark, who was represented by the chairman, Senate Committee on Intelligence and Security, Sen. Magoro Muhammed, made this comment during  the opening ceremony of a two-day “Stakeholders forum on the protection of critical national assets and infrastructure”, organised by the office of the National Security Adviser (NSA) and the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC). He insisted that vandalism was akin to modern-day terrorism.

He said: “Attack on these critical infrastructure should be seen as attack on Nigeria’s national interest. Considering that we already  have a bill with very stringent laws and purnishment recommended not long ago in the anti-terrorism bill, it is time we also transferred such recommendations on any one who tampers with our common wealth,  no matter who he is. If this is done, such lessons would not be easily forgotten. This is because a number of refineries have been stopped from functioning as a result of internal sabotage. These  are our common wealth and our national interests are tied to it. Anyone who destroys it has automatically destroyed the nation’s economy and should be treated as a terrorist.”
