Delta State Student Sentenced To Death

Click for Full Image Size
What a judgement, what a country where everything goes freely. Politicians loot public treasury and move freely without probe and even if the authorities wants to probe them, they are rescued by higher authorities.

Recently, a 22 years old Delta State Polytechnic student, Eguono Akpeghughu, was sentenced to death by hanging by a Warri High Court for armed robbery.

The accused was arrested with the help of a passerby when the victim summoned up courage and grabbed the accused as he made to escape with his loot and raised alarm while his other gang members escaped.

He was found guilty of robbing his victim, George Ogbemudia, of cash and wrist watch worth N1,200, a necklace worth N7,000, Sony Ericsson handset worth N26,000 and N2,000 cash – totaling about N30,000.

Could stealing N30,000 lead to death sentence compared to what our political office holders steal and transferred into foreign accounts?

Does the student truelly deserves to die? Well, this is a country where anything goes. It's left for you to judge.
