*Says Pictures Of Convicts Will Be Pasted At The Last-Known Address.

According  to the information made available to TheNigerialawyer, it was stated that in a bid to rid the State of sex offenders, the Delta State Ministry of Justice has taken its policy of naming and shaming convicted sex offenders a notch higher by publishing their names in the Delta State Ministry of Justice Sex Offender Register, the media as well as pasting the pictures of such sex offenders in the places they last lived in. 

Hon. Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Delta State,  in his recent statement,  stated that it has become imperative to name-shame these convicted sex offenders in order to deter those who have the intention to commit sexual offences and also let the public know that, the Delta State Government frowns seriously at the commission of sexual offences and would prosecute anyone found committing such crimes.

This is in accordance with the provisions of Section 5 of the Violence Against Persons Law 2020.
