Unfortunately, until the security problem and the lack of enforcement of laws is dealt with, I am afraid we will continue to see such barbaric acts all over lagos and Nigeria as a whole.

When did this happen?
It was a common sight in Lagos around 1999-2001, but I've never heard of it happening again since then

lagos is going to clamp down on "gated" streets next. without trying to fix the unsecure security we have.

if you have ever been robbed the armed robbbers, if your sister/girlfrend/frend/wife have been raped by these armed robbers, if you have ever lost a frend/family/loved one to these armed robbers b4, you will agree that this jungle justice serves them right, they are merciless in their operation, so, they dont deserve mercy too, call it jungle justice or whatever, they deserve worse than that!!! maybe i am speaking from my pains though, but that is the way i see it
Re: Shocking Video: Two Thieves Burnt To Ashes For Stealing In Lagos by Kobojunkie: 5:50pm On Jan 29, 2009
I agree that these people do not deserve mercy but that does not in any mean mean that I believe this is the best way to handle the situation. We need a more effective system that processes these criminals in a legal way and not this barbaric way.

Normal thing, i even watched one live, they were using broomstick to choke one of the robber's d*ck, it was bad, but no one showed pity.

i agree that barbaric jungle justice is not good enough but what do u expect wen we have a weak judiciary (which only treats political cases), since civil justice is lame at the moment, let jungle justice continue
Re: Shocking Video: Two Thieves Burnt To Ashes For Stealing In Lagos by Kobojunkie: 6:13pm On Jan 29, 2009
I just think it is too terrible to continue. Gosh!!! I can not imagine why we have allowed this to continue for this long.

Re: Shocking Video: Two Thieves Burnt To Ashes For Stealing In Lagos by Nobody: 1:49am On Jan 30, 2009
They had no right. The "executors" looked like thieves themselves.
Re: Shocking Video: Two Thieves Burnt To Ashes For Stealing In Lagos by Nobody: 8:20am On Jan 31, 2009
As gruesome as this is, i think the story would be different if anyone had bad encounters with men of the underworld.
Imagine if robbers come to your house, steal your money, shoot your pops, rape your mums and your sisters.
While this is barbaric, Nigerians have been terrorised so i don't blame people for closing one eye and burning this mudafu!ckers. I certainly am not man enough to stand there and watch a fellow human burn to death.

i wonder how many of you commenting on this thread have seen where armed robbers operate b4, i wonder how many of you live in Lagos. in many streets in lagos, the gates of the streets get shut at 6:00 pm because of these armed robbers, you can t really sleep well with one little money in your house because of this pple, the first thing you think of wen you arrive in nigeria is how will pple not know that i "just arrived" coz of these same sets of pple, these same armed robbers kill, rape, maim, steal, etc, even the police station is not spared; I acknowlege that this is barbaric, but since the judiciary is weak, let the ppple take the laws for punishing these pple into their hands, although the unfortunate part of this is that the innocent can be mistaken for the robber but this also happens in judiciary too - that an innocent person will be pronouced guilty.

and for those of you who dont want to come back to nigeria coz of this barbaric act, my 10 cent advice is that dont come to nigeria in the first place because of those robbers, they'll kill you to take your money once they know that you just flew in, dem no dey hear say ur money dey bank coz that will make u even more guilty to them

so, dont condemn the pple carrying out the jungle justice, but condemn nigerian police and judiciary for not adequately protecting the pple to the extent that pple are driven to commit this "barbaric" act!!!
