@moderator,please don't remove this post again. This is supposed to be a free forum where ideas can be exchanged in the form of debate.i have seen worse things on nairaland.if CNN and facebook can allow it on their website,then it is only fair for it to be shared on nairaland for the purpose of debate. This has been watched my many Nigerians and non-Nigerians alike. So it is necessary for us to view what is going on in our country as it can only stimulate national debate.
There is material on nairaland that involves acts of sedition and espionage and treason which is by far worse that this piece of reality being posted. thanks for understanding.allow us to debate nigerian reality.

again,why is nigerian mentality like this.how come such severe punishment for the petty theif and nothing for the big oneanyone??

murder!

but why?? nigerians are hypocrtical,no?

Wow.

Mere absence of war is not peace.
Really, carnage in Lagos.

Jungle justice! We are all animals! Na who first die be meat!

GoldCircle:

There is no single Justification for this, what about if these souls were not even guilty of stealing?

ok!

2nd thing i've seen today to make me ashamed of being born in Nigeria!!!!!!!

I hope anybody involved in setting those guys on fire die painfully and slowly. I hope they feel the worst pain imaginable, I HOPE THEY DIE.

At least I still have people I can point at with pride!!! Soyinka,Achebe, Hakeem, if not, ill go change my name 2morrow

I hope those bastards burn alive in a car accidents, I hope they feel what those guys felt,I WISH I COULD KILL THEM MY SELF.
This sh*t f*cks me up for real.

Wahala wa oooooooooooooooooooooooo

I have never seen such bulls--t in my life.I use to hear of it and now i watched it recorded

We are in the f--king Dark ages men.

Ewoooooo!!

This is one reason why the rest of the world dont respect Nigerians. We think we are Giants of Africa. but seriously is this one of the behaviour giant should display? What a shame!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is really sad. We need to stop all these acts of extra judiciary in nigeria. Criminals are to be hand over to police,this shows that both citizen and the Govts are far away from civilization. really sad

this is the question, are nigerians cowardly people.if they can do this to a petty theif who stole something maybe not more that $100. why cant the same sort of inhumanity be meted on nigerian leaders who steal millions.instead they kneel down for them.nigerians are backward people.thats why we cant develop.its not corruption,its because the entire culture is backward and regressive

100% in agreement with you.

There is a legacy of subjugation and oppression in Nigeria. This has resulted in a populace that is so fearful that they commit such psychotic brutality to deny the fear and utter timidity in them.

whats that all about? we are still in 1913 or 2009, we are actually backward people. shekena.

And yoruba politician should see this. And all those supporting the slavery of yoruba people. Just remember 1983. Let the yorubas go. Can you imagine one of your politician in this. This is what yorubas can do to those people putting them in slavery.

Some people better be wise. And let join in saving 15 million lifes.

Very very sad. I am in total shook that human beings would behave like animals. Nigeria is failed country

Why isnt any TV station in nigeria showing this? Seems like they are too busy celebrating Ibori and trying act like they are the real opposition

Barbaric nation. Keep displaying barbarism for the world to see. The sick part is that people are just watching like its some cool circus. Tufiakwa!!!

cosign. Lets tell ourselves the bitter truth.

It's because the police blamed a goat.

Maybe they should have killed the goat.

This sort of thing will continue to happen until we straighten out our police.

no until people stop going to rob others thinking they will get away with it. thanks to theives every house is built almost like a prison. things are so expensive in nigeria because you have to add cost of stolen goods to almost everything.

what did nigerians do to deserve violent criminals? are we the only hungry or greedy people on planet earth. cost of securing goods and properties in nigeria is too high because of these idiots

nobody deserve to be burnt but nobody to be robbed of hard earned money and property too. as i keep saying not until we start asking ourselves the question of how we make and worship money we will never stop seing this kind of madness.

just yesterday sunnews online reported a Secondary School teacher, a bricklayer and a car dealer robbing a bank. you wonder how many times they have done it before and got away with it. how hungry are these people?

Police in Osun State have nabbed members of a 3-man robbery gang, which raided a commercial bank in Lagere, in Ife area of the state.

Police said one of the suspects is a Secondary School teacher, one, a bricklayer and another, a car dealer.
The Osun State Police Commissioner, Mr. John Moronike, who paraded the suspects at the police command Headquarters, Osogbo, recently, said the policemen engaged the robbers in a shoot-out, resulting in the death of the leader of the gang.
He said the policemen also barricaded the robbers' escape route, which make it possible for the arrest of the suspects.

Moronike explained that police operatives had upper hand during the exchange of gunfire, forcing the bandits to abandone a jeep, marked EZ 284 ABC, and a bus which they drove to the bank premises.
One of the suspects, Julius Adewuyi, confessed that his duty was to drive members of the gang to robbery scenes.

He narrated how the gang succeeded in robbing a bank, where they carted away some money in two "Ghana-must-go" bags.

Another suspect, Babalola Babatunde, who claimed to be a teacher at Ayedun Grammar School, Ife-South, however, denied any involvement in robbery.
"I don't know members of the gang. Police arrested me in my friend's house," he said.
Morenike said arms, ammunition, the sum of N173,110, Axe ATM cards foreign currencies, among others, were also recovered by the police.

Meanwhile, the Osun State Governor, Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola, has visited victims of the robbery in the hospital.

To answer your statement, crime is universal. The deterrent is law enforcement. When that fails, people take justice in their own hands. If people have faith in the justice system they will not carry out these atrocities.

The justice system does not work, so people will continue to take part in vigilante justice until it does.

if crime is universal as you say how come we have all those protectors and gates more than any group of people i have seen?

JJYOU:

Because we have more crime than most places and hence people don't feel safe in Nigeria. We have more crime because we have more poor people. We have more poor people because we have uneven distribution of wealth. Our justice system does not work, people do not have trust in it.

South Africa is the same.
