The Jigawa State Government has approved the Child Protection Law which prescribed death penalty for child rapists.

With the law, anyone convicted of raping a child below the age of 10 will be sentenced to a mandatory death penalty without option of fine.

The development was disclosed on Wednesday by the state Commissioner for Justice and the Attorney General, Dr Musa Adamu, at a press briefing in Dutse, the state capital.

“Earlier this year the Jigawa State Governor, Alhaji Mohammed Badaru Abubakar, signed the Violence Against Prohibition Bill which prescribed the death penalty for rapists but with the option of life imprisonment. But recently the government has also signed the child protection law which prescribed the death penalty for anyone that raped a child below the age of 10″, the Commissioner said.
