Yoruba Man Robs Igbo Man In Dagenham, London. by nuesaweso(f): 4:54pm On Dec 04, 2009
What is wrong with all these Yoruba boys



Four people are being sentenced on Friday in connection with a violent robbery and a car chase which ended with the death of a police officer.


The death of Gary Toms shows to us the potential dangers the officers I'm leading are facing on a daily basis

Sir Paul Stephenson
Pc Gary Toms, 37, died in hospital on 17 April this year as controversy was raging about the death of newspaper vendor Ian Tomlinson during the G20 protests.

Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Paul Stephenson highlighted Pc Toms' sacrifice at a briefing to reporters about the Tomlinson case.

He said: "The death of Gary Toms shows to us the potential dangers the officers I'm leading are facing on a daily basis.

"I feel a sense of pride in the courage and dedication of Gary Toms. It's a tragedy for his family and I have met his wife, mother and mother-in-law."

Pc Toms joined the Met in January 2002 and in November 2008 he moved to specialist firearms unit CO19 where his commanding officer said he was known for his "sense of humour and professional attitude".


See map of the crime scene

His death followed a sequence of events which began in the early hours of 11 April this year at Onyedika Chukwuma's home in Dagenham, east London.

Mr Chukwuma had run a nightclub, Gem, in the Isle of Dogs and had employed a barmaid, 21-year-old Mary Fowler.

She had been sacked in October last year and the club later closed but six months later she contacted him and said her "cousin", James, was visiting from Sweden.

Mr Chukwuma agreed to go out with them that Saturday night and they ended up at Club Afrique in Canning Town.



Sacked barmaid Mary Fowler tried to rob her former boss
But the night out was simply a ruse and Fowler and "James" - who was in fact a friend, Mansour-Jacques Jallow - were intent on robbing Mr Chukwuma, who they believed kept a large amount of money at his home.

At five in the morning they arrived back at the house but Jallow immediately claimed he was hungry and got a taxi to a fast food restaurant.

Lyall Thompson, prosecuting, said that around one hour later there was a knock on the door and Jallow said: "It's me, James".

Mr Chukwuma opened the door and was confronted by Jallow and around six other men, who were wearing balaclavas.

They yanked the door open, pushed Mr Chukwuma to the ground and began kicking and punching him.

'Where's the money?'

He also got the impression Jallow had a gun.

The gang demanded to know where he kept "the club money" but he said all he had was what was in his wallet.

After ransacking the house - stealing the wallet, a camera, camcorder and laptop - the gang fled and got into a silver Chrysler hatchback waiting outside.

Fowler, who up until that time had not taken part in the robbery, also ran off and got into the same car.

Mr Chukwuma staggered outside, noted down a partial registration number and phoned 999.

Around 40 minutes later, the car was spotted in Romford Road, Stratford, by a police Armed Response Vehicle (ARV), which contained Pc Toms.

High-speed chase

They followed the car as far as Great Eastern Road, where Pc Toms and another armed officer got out, aimed weapons at the car and ordered the occupants to get out.

One of them did but the car sped off.

Mr Thompson said the ARV team left the man, prioritised the car and chased after it.

A chase through residential areas at speeds of up to 72 mph followed, with the robbers going through several red lights and narrowly missing pedestrians, said Mr Thompson.

Eventually the driver, 19-year-old Temitope Iyiola, drove into a cul-de-sac, Ashlin Road, where he was briefly cornered before managing to force his way past a police vehicle.

It was around this point Pc Toms suffered a fatal head injury.

He lived a full life which held no regrets

Clair Toms, Pc Tom's widow
Following an inquiry by the Met's collision investigation unit it was decided that no criminal proceedings should be brought in relation to Pc Toms' death.

A police spokesman said: "The incident was treated as a tragic accident with Pc Toms suffering severe injuries after being jolted out of his seat inside the ARV."

An inquest is to be held in January.

His life support machine was switched off six days after the incident and his widow, Clair, paid tribute to him.

"He lived a full life which held no regrets and we are extremely proud of all that he achieved in his lifetime," she said.

Following his death, more than 4,000 people joined a group on the social networking website Facebook to pay tribute to him.

Footprints

Shortly after Pc Toms was injured, Iyiola collided head-on with another police car but the two officers in that vehicle only received minor injuries.

Iyiola, Fowler and Jallow - who were in the car - were immediately arrested.

A fourth man, 19-year-old Austin Anti-Taylor, who had got out of the car earlier, was later charged after his fingerprints and footprints were found inside the house.

Jallow, 26, later pleaded guilty to robbery.

Iyiola admitted fraud - the Chrysler had been bought with a cloned credit card - and dangerous driving.

Fowler, Iyiola and Anti-Taylor all denied robbery but were convicted by a jury at Snaresbrook Crown Court, which was deliberately not told about Pc Toms' death for fear this might prejudice its verdict.

Detective Chief Inspector Mick Broster said: "Although there is no suggestion the defendants were directly responsible, our thoughts remain with his family as undoubtedly this court case will have brought back to them the events of that night."

The four have all been warned to expect custodial sentences when sentenced on Friday.

I think we should leave ethnicities aside and look beneath the covers of what really went wrong here.

The biggest immigrant population in the UK is of Indian origin. They have clawed their way up in British society by acting as props for one another, acting as sources of lending for their kin because everywhere in the West, immigrants are discriminated against by banks. Today, the richest man in the UK, Lakshmi Mital is an Indian. Indians are represented in all aspects of British society, from property to high tech to government.

Nigerian's too have made huge strides, but that is not the point. The very same cracks that are evident in Nigerian society are carried abroad. You are either Igbo, Isoko, Urhobo, Yoruba etc.
It is disheartening that our divisions at home run so deep, even worse is that we aren't big enough to sort them out. So, rather than help a brother up the ladder in a foreign land, we rob him.

Which way Nigeria?

Must anybody who bears Yoruba name have Yoruba blood?. This Iyiola guy may be British akata with a Yoruba name.  Nevertheless, why use that caption to feed the likes of Mekusxx and OPCMan very well today while tpia stands on the corner to monitor how her tribal soldiers are putting up the firewall. Another bigot, FreshMoney will soon land here with his horrible grammar.

It has nothing to do with tribe. A Yoruba armed robber in Nigeria can rob and kill  a Yoruba man in broadaylight without any atom of remorse. A criminal will always be a criminal and that is the beauty of their trade. They don't discriminate as long as their is a pie to share. Discrimination is an idea of fun for non criminals.

While I agree with some of the points that you are making, you erroneously conclude that Indians are getting ahead because Indians do not commit crimes against other Indians. We know that is not true. I agree, however, that Indians support themselves in many ways, whereas, Nigerians are not able to.

Nigerians are able to do that but tribal sentiments will not let them. Imagine tpia agreeing to hire an igbo person  in her cafeteria; You and I know that it's an impossibility for she will rather hire a Chinese.

Whilst you are right to get angry at your fellow country when they mess up, you equally have to balance it with the Nigerians who are doing well in the country. Criminality is not synonymous with tribe or race. There are rich white people and their are white criminals. The same can be said for the Indians, Chinese, Mexicans, etc With all the technological advancement in Japan, are there no criminals in Japan?

Re: Yoruba Man Robs Igbo Man In Dagenham, London.




Now, may I remind you of Damilola Taylor, a Yoruba boy who was stabbed to death some years ago.

Or any of the other knife crime victims on the streets of London.

Would you like to go find out the tribes and nationalities of all involved?

since you seem more interested in fanning tribalistic flames than mourning the dead.

But you need to look at statistics sometimes. A high percentage of Nigerians resident in UK  are very synonymous with yahoo yahoo and bank fraud. So, even if other nationalities are doing it, the population density should tell you that Nigerians top in that game.
