In the city of Maiduguri, located in the capital of Borno State, a suspected notorious thief was allegedly caught red-handed in the act of stealing electricity cables from a transformer.

The accused individual had been engaging in such illicit activities for an extended duration, evading capture until the early hours of Wednesday, May 17, 2023, when vigilant individuals finally apprehended him.

This information was reported by the reliable Adamawa State News Flash correspondent stationed in Maiduguri.

Upon catching the thief in the act, a crowd quickly gathered, their anger and frustration reaching a boiling point. Fueled by their outrage at the repeated thefts, the mob took matters into their own hands and resorted to immediate action. They proceeded to restrain the suspect by binding him tightly to the metallic frames of the very transformer he was attempting to pilfer. This measure was taken to prevent his escape and ensure that he faced the consequences of his alleged crimes.

They need to connect the cable with the transformer, then call Power holding to restore the light.

I know what he did is bad, but this punishment is too harsh on a human, and he deserve justice. They should have make him sweep from Maiduguri to Port Harcourt next time, non stop.

Seems you're living outside Nigeria, or protected by uncles and aunties providing you money in Nigeria.
If he successfully stole that transformer, that community/streets using that light will have to wait for months before that transformer will be replaced.

Or they will have to contribute minimum of 10k - 20k Naira per compound before buying another one. If the committee did not emblezzed the money. Abeg, lets be honest.

Just because of one man's greed?
