Meanwhile, a bill proposing life imprisonment for kidnappers has passed its second hearing in the Nigerian Senate.
Senator Ibikunle Amosun, the sponsor of the bill said there has been a major insurgence in kidnapping in recent times, therefore stricter punishments have to be introduced to combat the uprising.
The senator said the light punishment associated with the crime was the reason for the increase in recent times.
The Senate President, Ahmed Lawan, referred the bill to the committee on Judiciary, Human Rights, and Legal Matters.
