hmmmm....see frustration

Depression, confusion and frustration are competing for supremacy. Unfortunately, none of them is a considerable option. Therefore, I import the peace of Christ into the variables and I choose the peace of Christ. Brother, what of you?

The guy just pose like a king.

Frustration is the cause of this especially when you are broke.

I pray you don't get to know what is called 'frustration'

many are mad but few are insane

What could have been the problem that led a man of this age to carry out such a barbaric act?

Is he not supposed to be in his own house with family and kids.

Well, thank God they were rescued. After the treatment, they should ensure he stays at the correctional center to get his mind restructured.

people that commit suicide by setting themselves ablaze, what exactly are they thinking? die by fire and continue burning in hell?

anyway, the guys r ready for them

It is obvious the guy is mentally unstable.

He looks like an Undercooked Suya!
So gory, but things are happening sha

Mad people everywhere

Mental illness on the rise... the country as a whole is very sick too

See the rot in the system, they couldn't convey them to the hospital with an ambulance sef
Na wa o!

Nellyblaq:
He was arrested by the police,that's the reason he is being conveyed in a police van.He committed a crime(attempted murder),so there's no way he should enjoy the luxury of an ambulance.

See why the country is sick? He "allegedly" committed the crime which means that until an investigation is carried out and a competent court convicts him of the crime, he is innocent and should be treated with dignity. Kangaroo nation with no regards for human rights!

Since he's a criminal according to you, why did they take him to a hospital instead of locking him up in a police cell?

What's tha business?

na to carry one bucket of iodine solution pour the man for body just dey hungry me.


at least na first aid.
