Two young men who go about vandalising parked vehicles in Lekki have been caught by police.

Two scavengers, Sunday John and Mohammed Nuhu, were, this morning, caught while vandalising vehicles in the highbrow Lekki Phase 1, Lagos State.

John, from Adamawa State, whose father is a retired Chief Justice in the state, and Nuhu who is from Kano State, were nabbed at about 2am while trying to cart away the carcass of a vehicle chassis.

The two thieves who were severely beaten and stripped naked and paraded around the estate, were said to have already collected the money from their ready buyer who is yet to be apprehended.

According to witnesses, they are said to be regular thieves who go about stealing vehicle part as well as robbing early risers.

In his confession to Pulse, John agreed to the allegation, blaming his attitude on drugs and his stubbornness.

"My father is a retired Chief Justice in my state. He is not a poor man but I have been rebellious right from my childhood and actually ran away from home to Lagos. I am a drug addict and I take tramadol.

It is true I joined Nuhu to steal the chassis because he told me the man had already paid him for it.

I am sorry. Please help me beg the police to forgive me. I will not steal again."

On his part, Nuhu said he actually called John to join him in the act.

"I am a scavenger and someone told me he wanted the chassis and I brought him last night to see it, promising him I would deliver the thing to him.

At about 2am, John and myself came to Ugbogoh Iweanya where the thing was and we had successfully taken it to Admiralty Way when the police patrol team caught us."

Pic 1&2 the thieves
Pic 3&4 the stolen chassis

I dont support their attitude of stealing other people's properties but when caught, we should not make them go unclad just because they are theives. We are all humans and not Animals.

I wish 1 bigger thief in Abuja power house can be caught and make him/her go unclad nationwide because he/she stole from the National purse.

Fools

Y are the stripped naked plsssss

Stealing is not good though

.

They look like apes being tied down
Those scavengers are thieves, they do steal all the time

Rule of law

But I don't understand what we gain or enjoy stripping people off their clothes.
Isn't it disgusting?

Great

"My father is a retired Chief Justice (& ex-president) in my state. He is not a poor man but I have been rebellious right from my childhood and actually ran away from home to Lagos. I am a drug addict and I take tramadol . Jonathan sef

Anyway, the advantage of stripping them is that if they escape, people would easily identify them as nude and lacking clothing. This would lead to their eventual re-arrest.

Chai....bad day for these ones..



Land for sale






Closes nairaland n got bk to work

Ok

They are lucky they weren't burnt alive.

The buyer who sent them should also be arrested.

Jungle justice.... I thought as much!

Crazy guys

At least pictures of the items stolen.

See them looking like black monkeys. 'I will never steal again', indeed! Just let them go naa and the trade continues.

99 days for thief 1 day for the owner

Serves 'em right...


Vandalism/Crime doesn't pay, don't fall a victim.

I always wonder who first started the idea of stripping thieves. When white people call us animals, we will be vexing, but we treat ourselves like animals.

They thanks their star falling into Anebo hand.If na Ajepako..rere at run..they for don burn to hell

Imagine!

I reserve my comment

Y

so police could join in this kind act
