this one got me smiling, no longer robbers but petty thieves who just stole laptops and phones that grow on trees in Nigeria.

pDude:

The k-leg tori don bend to x-leg

seunajia: Apparently, we have lost every sense of justice in the years of assault endured in the hands of our public officials.

Most responders couldn't make-out a clear distinction between "self-defence" and "Jungle justice". There is no near correlation between @oyb's ordeal and the barbaric murder of these boys.

A pro-JJ might be quick to say: "The Police releases criminals handed over to them, so it's better to kill them"--- but think about it, killing criminals/suspected criminals does not make you any better than them. Jungle justice is a crime. You have gone even further to block the course of justice.
Moreso, wouldn't it be rather hypocritical to turnaround to accuse BH?

Goldieluks: This is no laughing matter, and the families of the dead boys gots to retaliate. Dammit!

oyb:

going by the story, the boys were caught in an uncompleted building with laptops and mobile phones

let me point something out - the theives went through five other houses and were stocking their loot somewhere between each invasion. my house was the last house they came to because the neighbourhood had been alerted.

you see boys in an uncompleted building with stolen good, they are meeting to share the loot.

anyway, truth be told, you will be liberal and logical and rule of law about these things until you experience them and realise just how powerless you are as a citizen in this country

oyb: a year ago four boys attackd me in a hold up in apapa oshodi expressway

they were barking where is the money, where is the laptop.

they broke the two front windows of my car , and i was cut by the glass.

i am sure those ones are also petty thieves

otokx: @oyb

lef them alone, we Nigerians deserve the evil and even worse things politicians and pastors do to us, something that is black we would say it is white.

Bwave: Please this matter should be thoroughly investigated by the government of rivers state.How sure are these villagers that these were the same people that have been terrorising their community?They cannot just lynch students living in the community because they suspect them to be cultists.That they were seen in an uncomplted building smoking weed is not enough evidence. In as much as I detest people who rob or molest others and may even condole jungle justice,something tells me this not just right.Many of the people spewing trash here have friends and relatives who are established cultists, you guys should kill all of them before coming here to justify this barbaric act.

You are a fuccked up human being. Do you understand me? Listen to yourself; Brutality is a function this civilisation today. I will ignore that gbagaun and comment on the content. I don't think you even know the level of your stupidity. I guess brutality is the reason why Nigeria is at the low level it is today. This is the reason why Nigeria is backward; because of the archaic and barbaric actions that are applauded. You encourage such actions and that makes you barbaric. You are also a barbaric person for this ignorant comment of yours. Actually, you are bloody cretin..bastarrd.

You are seeking sympathy for your dead soldiers abi?

You go seek taya. A smiling viper is still a viper

ichidodo: U FARKIN BLACK CARNT! WHAT U CALL BACKWARD IS ONLY A QUESTION OF RELATIVITY. WHEN U DONT UNDERSTAND SHIIT, U CALL IT BARBARISM U IGNORANT FURCK. U SAY BARBARISM WHEN IT SUITS U. INVASION OF IRAQ AND AFGANISTAN IS IT NOT BARBARIC ?, 9/11?, INTIFADAH,MEND,BOKO-HARAM, FAKE PASTORS, FAKE BOOBS,FAKE HAIR. ALL THESE ARE BARBARIC ACTS IN OUR TIME AND WE HAVE TO LIVE WIT IT. BRUTALITY IS A FUNCTION OF HUMANITY ERGO OF HUMAN CIVILISATION. THAT U CAL MI A CRETIN SAYS U R A BARBARIAN IN D CLOSET. THAT IS WORSE THAN A BARBARIC NIGERIAN MAN'(ERGO, MY) XCRETA.

Dipwater: Nna eh pipu bad o.no matter what it is bad to take law into ur hands

Those supporting the killing I pity u and ur (un)born children
Killing them as deterent wuldnt deter anything but wuld make it worst

Say to violence I will tell u a story

My yunger brothas friend wus attacked by armed robbers one day ,wen he wus coming back from work.they collected his phone and money .after which he started running and the thieves started shouting. Ole ! Lole. B4 he could know it ,crowd gatherd and chased him with dangerous weapon but they didn't get him cuz he xcaped .just imagine wat wuldve happened to that boy

agent22: This is totally un fair. They are not caught with gun, they r just new recruits of cultist. I heard thatthe vigillantes even refuse to gv them fair hearing.I pray all this people will never know peace amen. @girls shouting small prick they are under pressure so it suppose to shrink to d lowest size.

Rooneyboy: What do u really mean by PAIN ?
These young men are thieves and as such deserve no pity @ all,
You have pity on them cos u've never experienced their visit,pray they never visit u o,
JUNGLE JUSTICE was just the ideal thing to do to them.

oyb: i live in festac and for the past 6 months there have been escalating home invasions by small boys like the ones being discussed

laptops, blackberries, jewelery

earlier in the year, they would sneak into houses in groups of two

a month or so ago, four of them came to my house - because my compound is very well illuminated, a neighbour saw them poking around, raised the alarm, and they ran away, but they still robbed someone else and got away with handbag and blackberry


a week later, they came back, 8 in number, with matchetes they went through 5 houses before they came to my house , mostly they sneaked in, woke up the occupants, take all the laptops etal, ra-pe the women or debate on it , lock them up

when they came to my house, they came through the balcony upstairs. i woke up to the sound of the thugs breaking the sliding glass door of the balcony.

i came out to confront two thugs , one weilding a machete, the other some sort of gun . the thug with the matchete was shouting what they probably teac them in armed robber school - where is the money

the guy with the matchete first slapped me in the face with the matchete , when he saw i was not willing to cooperate. i then threw the only thingi could at him - the dustbin beside me. he then hit me in the head with the matchete , with blood pouring down the side of my face , i rushed at the two thugs and knocked them off the balcony.

my wifes screams had alerted teh neighbours, and the robbers all eight of them, commenced running up and down the neighbourhood shouting like mad dogs

someone had called the police, and for once they actually showed up, but the robbers still got away

they also matcheted our security guard.

typical to naija police, the next day there was a show of arresting some locals who we were then asked to identify face to face , never mind that people have id ed thieves in the past o have the thieves tell them to their face that nothing will happen

jungle justice is inevitable in a country where the nigerian police are good for nothing and are often in league with armed robbers

the same theives raided another neighbourhood in festac a week or so ago - this time they were 16 in number, but their luck ran out as the neighbourhod abokis were on to them. four of them were caught. the locals almost burnt them alive before they handed them over to the police

violent crime has all sorts of repercussions to the victims - there's the physical trauma - i have a scar on my forehead, i needed several stitches, i cut the my feet running at the robbers and needed stitches there too - i was out of office for over a week ; for the next week everyone jumped at the slightest noise - we all had trouble sleeping, i wake up at odd hours to look outside; ditto for some of my neighbours

these boys did not wear masks, thats how bold they were. the other day i was in an eatery and i saw a boy who looked to be about the height of on of the robbers. the boy was limping. i stared at him for a very very long time. who knows? it could have been one of them.

imagine, one of the thieves who was caught said he was saving money to leave nigeia, which was why he was breaking into peoples houses to rob and r-ape. what nonsense

Ji_sun_pack: . . .and even claiming to be the most " industrious" and hard working. smh!

My "girl friend" is always under my bed, oiled and ever ready to please me.

a mere tip-toeing around my house will make you a moving targets. The pleasure is mine

Goldieluks:


Common now. Those guys were killed not only for the wrong reason, but in a barbaric and animalistic way for pete's sake. These boys were robbed of their human rights. No justice!

otokx:

another spectacular theory, why run away after all your valuables have been collected? an associate of mine who stays in aluu after he was robbed and beaten with cutlass slept in that house for 10 days without any door as the landlord could not immediately replace the broken down iron door. The guy will leave his house in the morning and go to work and come back the house is like that - no need to lock anywhere and if you go inside there is nothing you will steal.

baby4u2: GOD HELP NIGERIA.

IF NIGERIAN POLICE ARE EVEN SENSIBLE. THIS PICTURES CAN BE USED TO CATCH THE PEOPLE WHO BEAT AND BURNT THEM ALIVE.

I CAME TO THIS POINT IN THE THREAD BY GOING THRU 90% OF THE POSTS.

NIGERIAN'S NO MATTER WHAT LEVEL YOU ARE IN, IN THIS ECONOMIC PHASE, CHANGE STARTS FROM US.

THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE.

EVERYTHING IS A TRICKLING EFFECT. FROM THE POLICE BRIBERY ON THE ROAD, TO THE CHEATERS IN THE CLASSROOM, THE GIRLS SELLING THEIR BODIES, GUYS TRYING TO LEAVE ABOVE THEIR MEANS, POLITICIANS THINKING THEIR POSITION IS THEIR ENTITLEMENTS. EVERYTHING MIXING UP AND NO ONE AGREEING TO CHANGE.

SMH

LITERALLY SAT DOWN TO DO SOMETHING ELSE, BUT HAVE BEEN ON THIS THREAD FOR HOURS, PONDERING ABOUT NIGERIA. I AM ASHAMED TO MY BONES.
