Aisha Isyaku\u00a0 Tukur<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">expressed concern that an average of five rape cases especially minors are recorded in Kaduna State on daily basis, saying only severe penalties for rapists in the state penal code will serve as a deterrent to others.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">She said the rapists today don\u2019t spare anybody because the elderly, youth and infants are not spared, adding that indecent dressing is no longer the causes because ladies who dressed decently are also prone to the menace.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Pharm. Tukur said the Qu\u2019ran enjoins men to protect their wives and women in the society; surprisingly the same men have become threats to the women they ought to protect.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">She added that some of the rapists are working free in the streets, therefore called on the law enforcement agencies to ensure that rapists are prosecuted and sentenced.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">The Amira commended the efforts of the wife of kaduna State Governor Ummi El-Rufai for her fight against rapists in the state.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">It will be recalled that during a public hearing on the Bill seeking the amendment of the penal code last month, the wife of the Kaduna state Governor, Ummi El-Rufai proposed either castration or death sentence for rapists, even as she described such act as a gross violation of the rights of women and children.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Kaduna State House of Assembly on Friday\u00a0 then went ahead to approved castration as punishment for anybody convicted for rape in the state.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">This follows the amendment of the State Penal Code (No.5), law of 2017 which stipulates stiffer penalties for rapists in the state as part of the effort to protect women and children against any form of gender violence.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\u201cAnyone convicted of rape will have his organ surgically removed so that even upon completion of his jail term, will not be able to commit the crime again,\u201d the spokesman of the House, Musa Ahmed said.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Ahmed said in addition to the castration of the convicted rapist, the new law entails 21 years imprisonment for the rape of an adult and life imprisonment for the rape of a minor.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We Support Castration As Punishment For Rapists -FOMWAN Federation of Muslims Women Association in Nigeria (FOMWAN), Kaduna state Chapter\u00a0 has expressed support to the recent approval of Castration As Punishment For Rapists by Kaduna House of\u00a0 Assembly.
