For Those In Owerri, Beware Of Tricycle Robberies by imsuboi(m): 9:38am On Jun 21, 2015
The rate at which I've been hearing stories of tricycle (Keke Maruwa) robberies these days is alarming.

Just 3 days ago, a close friend of mine told me about how he was almost robbed. If not for divine intervention, he would have been robbed and probably injured badly.

Here's his story (after which I'll tell you mine which happened yesterday)

He boarded a Keke (tricycle) from ikenegbu to IMSU back gate (he was the only one in the Keke). Along the way, the driver stopped at a lonely spot to pick two male passengers.

Instead of both of them entering from one side, they entered from both sides, hereby flanking my friend and leaving him with no route of escape. They then pointed a pistol at the keke man and told him to zoom off.

On getting to a lonely road around the abandoned aladimma shopping mall, they told the keke man to stop (which he did). As they proceeded to rob my friend of his belongings, by a stroke of luck, a church service going on around that area had just dismissed; so there was a large efflux of people.

In the ensuing commotion, my friend managed to push one of them out from the tricycle and flee for his dear life.

now here's my story

On Saturday morning, after doing my laundry, I wanted to head to the market (eke onuwa market) to buy some food stuff.

So I came outta my hostel, strolled to sterling hotel junction, crossed the road and waited for a Keke.

As I had just withdrawn some cash the night before, I didn't have change (just 1000naira bills).
When I crossed over, one tricycle with no one inside stopped in front of me, before I entered, I told him I don't have change; he said I should still enter; which I did.

He then drove a little, stopped and said he wants to pick more passengers. Almost at once, one guy just jumped into the tricycle from one side; I looked at him, our eyes met, his eyes were bloodshot and he reeked of _marijuana. I then quickly looked outside and
saw two other guys coming.

I knew this is a robbery.

I quickly came down and went to sit in front with the Keke driver. As I did so, the second guy entered and sat at the back with his colleague.

I looked back at them.

The first one then pointed at me and said "na because of you we enter this Keke"

Omo!

I immediately jumped down from the Keke o!

And started walking back.

The assholes came down too. On seeing I wasn't running, I think they lost the zeal to chase me. They stood there issuing threats upon threats.

I put on my headset, Ramin Djawadi's "the Children" was playing as I strolled away from the bastards. cool cool

Me 1 - 0 robbers.


beware of the tricycles you board!

This is exactly the same reason I said that you are rettarded and myopic. You said in your initial post that your phones and money were not just collected once but three times! That shows that you are nothing but an Ogbono soup with no kpomo. See you here now threatening me? Ina apu ara? The op who had no gun was able to run away because he was smarter. If you had any senses, you will know that it takes only being street smart on douglas to beat them. Engaging them in violence may lead to your death. And here you are advertising that you have a pistol.... You wish bro... Broke boy. Shift jor befor mu were ura mawa gi anya.

.... By the way, The same death you wish me, I send it back to you. Use it till the end of tyme. When you are tired, transfer it to your family nd generations.
