Should all African countries abolish the death penalty?

October 11, 2023

Human rights groups have called for the death penalty to be abolished globally and replaced with longer prison sentences, so persons wrongfully convicted of certain crimes are not executed. So far only 29 out of 55 African countries have completely abolished the death penalty. On this week’s 77 Percent Show we ask if the rest of Africa should abolish the death penalty? #77Percent #DWAfrica
