The sanctions etc you mention are all well and good - but how realistic are they.

There are many countries that we don't have extradition treaties with who will not return citizens of their country to us to face charges for murder or other such crimes. Do they care about potential sanctions? They often have limited effect!
But the point is killing him will only insure MORE death. Sanctions can be heavy, especially to a struggling country like Nigeria.

Either throw him away in prison for life or deport him, the Death Penalty will only lead to a lot more innocent blood being spilt.
