Mob Sets Robber Ablaze In Akwa Ibom; Displays His Remains On The Road (Graphic Photos)

An angry mob set a suspected robber ablaze after he was allegedly caught trying to snatch a mobile phone in Uyo, Akwa Ibom state capital, IgbereTV reports.

The incident happened at about 7 am on Thursday, December 17, along Abak Road, Uyo Akwa Ibom State.

It was gathered that the suspect was apprehended by Abak road residents while he was trying to snatch a mobile phone from a woman on Wednesday night.

A source around the area told newsmen that he was among notorious armed robbers that have been terrorising Uyo particularly the popular “Ibom Plaza’ and environs in recent times.

It was also gathered that the suspect specializes in snatching mobile phones and dispossessing the residents of their money and valuables.

"He is a member of the notorious armed robbery gang who has been terrorising the whole of Abak road, NEPA Line, and even the Ibom Plaza area. They always snatch people’s phone and dispossess innocent members of the public of their money," a resident said.

"But yesterday night his cup became full and he was caught in the act and burnt alive after snatching somebody’s mobile phone. In fact, I was told that when he was caught, some police officers arrived to take him to their station but they people refused and took him away to a Street, burnt him and later brought his corpse to Abak Road where everyone can see. It is unfortunate how young men waste their lives."

Comrade David John wrote on Facebook:

"This morning in Abak road by Nepa line, an armed robber was caught while trying to snatch phone from someone.

He was burnt to dead instantly. May others learn from this painful dead and let us live in peace."

Monkey dey work, Buhari dey chop.

Both the armed robber and his killers are mad.

Oya make them chop am suya don ready

If they were all covering their nose from the disgusting barbequed corpse smell then why did they all stand so close to it when it went up in flames. Cannibals

Lolzzz,, dead body with swag!!!

Humanity is dead and buried.

What a people?

No atom of regard for sanctity of life.

As kids, the news of a dead person in any of the houses in the neighbourhood would mean avoiding such houses out f fear, even without sighting any corpse.

But these days, children go even use dead body head play ball.

I have zero pity for harm robbers. They deserve any kind of death

Akwa Ibom and jungle justice is like 5&6

Damnnn niggarrrr
This is not good

Why does this shit even exist
Where are the police
It pains me cus innocent fellas may fall victim to this barbaric act

I keep saying it Jungle Justice is baddd

Calabar people no dey dull. You thief, them catch you na to put tire for your neck. Only a fool will go and rob in Cally/Uyo knowing the consequences if caught.

Bestiality

Chai
Nawa

Christians in the house abeg make una answer this question. Who's head will this robber blood be on according to the Bible doctrine.

This is crude and barbaric but anyway awon olopa ofun awon Nigerians loroso.the people have lost trust and respect for the police because Na police wey arrest criminal for afternoon go collect money from relatives of criminals for night and the next day the criminal is released and terrorising the person that belled the cat

The justice system is even a joke

Na wa. I do not support stealing of any kind but that man's life isn't worth ending over a phone. Even if they do not trust the police to do their work, a good beating will serve as a deterrent. Taking his life is cruelty, a thief today could be responsible tomorrow. It's not murder he committed that they'll take his life. We need to be less cruel as Nigerians and understand the situation today. Hardship is no excuse to go into crime but there is hope for restitution for everyman. No one knows tomorrow.

Earn decently, they won't hear.

And for the mob, killing him is not really okay. At least to get information from him about his colleagues whereabouts to apprehend them and their modus operandi to counter them.

Them really say calabar people dey chop this thing....

What dey fvck did I just see

Those guys up there talking thrash...if you guys know the recent robbery in uyo enh, even today udo umana street close to nepa line was robbed. They guy is a confirmed thief. He deserve it. When its 6 pm everyone is scampering to get home cus of robbers.

Calabar people no dey dull. You thief, them catch you na to put tire for your neck. Only a fool will go and rob in Cally/Uyo knowing the consequences if caught.

..bros calm down... na people like you they give Boko Haram amnesty... Nigeria needs North Korea standard for this country to be great... iron hand ..because of 50 naira phone that idiot wanted to cause someone pain... this is a clear case of karma.... catch armed robbers and kill them.... catch bandits and kill them.... catch kidnappers and kill them... catch Boko Haram and kill them... that is the standard

This is so wrong and babaric. The government needs to stop this by using some people as example.

Anybody can just raise a false alarm on someone and before you know, people start looking for petrol

I think the issue of jungle justice need be looked into.


This is totally inhumane,regardless whatever his crime might be.


Why is it that in this part of the world,sinners judge other sinners for sinning differently??
Heartlesness,joblesness and hardship if you ask me.
