It is the long-standing policy of the Government to oppose the death penalty in all circumstances as a matter of principle.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/06/2015 answer text The security situation in Nigeria remains of strong concern. It is estimated that 20,000 people have been killed, 1.5 million have been displaced and at least 3 million have been affected by the terrorist group Boko Haram. Recent efforts by Nigeria and its neighbours have seen the group pushed back. However, Boko Haram remains a potent threat and retains the ability to conduct attacks. President Buhari has made restoring security and prosperity to north east Nigeria a priority for his government. We look forward to working closely with him on this agenda. answering member constituency Rochford and Southend East answering member printed James Duddridge question first answered 01/06/2015 11:23:01 answering member 1559 label Biography information for Sir James Duddridge
