NIGERIAN, FIVE OTHERS TO BE EXECUTED FOR DRUGS IN INDONESIA.

A convicted Nigerian drug trafficker is
among six drug offenders to be executed
in Indonesia on Sunday. The Nigerian,38
year-old Daniel Enemuo, alias Diarrssouba
was convicted in 2004.
Indonesian authorities announced the
execution today. It will be the first
execution under new President Joko
Widodo.
The planned executions were announced
by the Indonesian Attorney General’s
Office.
Widodo, who took office in late October,
signed off on the executions last month.
He pledged no clemency for drug
offenders, despite pleas from the
European Union, the Brazilian
government and Amnesty International.
The five foreigners due to be executed
are from Nigeria, Malawi, Vietnam, the
Netherlands and Brazil.
“Indonesia’s new government took office
on the back of promises to improve
respect for human rights, but carrying
out these executions would be a
regressive move,” said Rupert Abbott, a
Southeast Asia research director for
Amnesty International.
European Union foreign policy chief
Federica Mogherini said the planned
executions were “deeply regrettable” and
urged Indonesia to establish a
moratorium on the death penalty.
Indonesia resumed executions in 2013
after a five-year gap.
Widodo has taken a strong stance on the
rule of law, not only on drugs but also on
corruption and maritime law.
In his first few months in office, he has
ordered illegal fishing vessels to be blown
up by the navy and supported the
unprecedented move of dismissing the
entire board of energy giant Pertamina
