otokx: The masses are truly vexing, you go to pages of newspaper and TV, people are saying electricity has improved, you go home and no light for days not even a flash, month end, they give you 2 days together with bill as you pay the thing goes off. For night you are asleep in the darkness and then one guy come with torch light, machete and gun to collect your mobile phone that the battery is dead plus the small 1800 you want take enter market for soup.

Goldieluks:


I hope you watch the death scene whilst eating akpu and draw soup. More MORE rubbish!!

is this one of them too?

oyb: i live in festac and for the past 6 months there have been escalating home invasions by small boys like the ones being discussed

laptops, blackberries, jewelery

earlier in the year, they would sneak into houses in groups of two

a month or so ago, four of them came to my house - because my compound is very well illuminated, a neighbour saw them poking around, raised the alarm, and they ran away, but they still robbed someone else and got away with handbag and blackberry


a week later, they came back, 8 in number, with matchetes they went through 5 houses before they came to my house , mostly they sneaked in, woke up the occupants, take all the laptops etal, ra-pe the women or debate on it , lock them up

when they came to my house, they came through the balcony upstairs. i woke up to the sound of the thugs breaking the sliding glass door of the balcony.

i came out to confront two thugs , one weilding a machete, the other some sort of gun . the thug with the matchete was shouting what they probably teac them in armed robber school - where is the money

the guy with the matchete first slapped me in the face with the matchete , when he saw i was not willing to cooperate. i then threw the only thingi could at him - the dustbin beside me. he then hit me in the head with the matchete , with blood pouring down the side of my face , i rushed at the two thugs and knocked them off the balcony.

my wifes screams had alerted teh neighbours, and the robbers all eight of them, commenced running up and down the neighbourhood shouting like mad dogs

someone had called the police, and for once they actually showed up, but the robbers still got away

they also matcheted our security guard.

typical to naija police, the next day there was a show of arresting some locals who we were then asked to identify face to face , never mind that people have id ed thieves in the past o have the thieves tell them to their face that nothing will happen

jungle justice is inevitable in a country where the nigerian police are good for nothing and are often in league with armed robbers

the same theives raided another neighbourhood in festac a week or so ago - this time they were 16 in number, but their luck ran out as the neighbourhod abokis were on to them. four of them were caught. the locals almost burnt them alive before they handed them over to the police

violent crime has all sorts of repercussions to the victims - there's the physical trauma - i have a scar on my forehead, i needed several stitches, i cut the my feet running at the robbers and needed stitches there too - i was out of office for over a week ; for the next week everyone jumped at the slightest noise - we all had trouble sleeping, i wake up at odd hours to look outside; ditto for some of my neighbours

these boys did not wear masks, thats how bold they were. the other day i was in an eatery and i saw a boy who looked to be about the height of on of the robbers. the boy was limping. i stared at him for a very very long time. who knows? it could have been one of them.

imagine, one of the thieves who was caught said he was saving money to leave nigeia, which was why he was breaking into peoples houses to rob and r-ape. what nonsense

otokx:

was it really 7 hours? did they all die?

playah P:

YES THEY WERE CAUGHT AROUND 5.30AM

I GOT A CALL THEN..... THEN I CALLED MY BOSS.
THEN HE CALLED SOME POLICE PEOPLE TO GO PICK THEM UP.
BUT BEFORE THEN, I HEARD THE VIGILANTE REQUESTED FOR 1M IN ORDER TO RELEASE THEM.... I HAVENT AUTHENTICATED THE STORY.
WHEN THE POLICE GOT THERE, THE VILLAGERS VIGILANTE REFUSED TO RELEASE THEM.

obadiah777: ON A MORE SERIOUS NOTE SOME OF YOU NEED TO TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AT YOUR BIBLES

pheesayor: not doubting you but which part of festac? because i stay in festac and dont hear of these robberies

obadiah777: I PREFER THE TERM 'CIVILIZED'. SEE I HAVE BEEN IMMERSED AND REFINED AND POLISHED BY ASSOCIATION WITH DIVERSE CULTURES. WHEN YOU GET TO MY LEVEL OF POLISH, YOU KNOW THAT BRUTISH FORCE SOLVES NOTHING. YOU NEGOTIATE. A MAN CONFRONTS YOU WITH A GUN AND ANOTHER WITH A KNIFE. NOW A slowpoke LIKE YOU WITH THE IQ OF A CRETINIC SLUG ACTUALLY THINKS THROWING A DUSTBIN AT THESE MEN IS AN ACT OF BRAVERY. THATS HOW LOW YOUR IQ IS. YOU ACTUALLY THINK THIS IS BRAVERY. BRAVERY IS TALKING TO THEM AND TRYING TO CALM THEM DOWN AND GIVING THEM WHAT THEY WANT. THATS BRAVERY. THROWING DUSTBINS AT A MAN WITH A GUN IS R-ETARDED BUT TO SOMEONE LIKE YOU AND THE REST OF THE PEOPLE COMING AGAINST ME, ITS BRAVERY. YALL ARE CRAZY. YOUR BRAINS HAVE BEEN AFFECTED BY SUFFERING

oyb:

thanks.

and the worst part of it is that this being nigeria practically everybody is mad at me - because in this country you cooperate with armed robbers

i am still debating with myself whether to take advice to simply move out of the house - since there are stories of robbers coming back for revenge against people foolhardy enough to stand up to them.

these are the real reasons why there is so much viciousness against people caught stealing - because we are so helpless

imagine waking up to some barely literate thugs in your bedroom, who proceed to slap you around, dispossess you of your hard earned valuables, and then debate whether to rape your daughters, wife etal

otokx: the 2 facebook profiles have seen does not in anyway indicate the wealth of those boys or was it a case of 2 rich and 2 poor guys?

pDude:

Actually, im eating jollof rice as I read. Nothing squeamish about seeing cultists burn
