What is jungle justice?

Well, it’s just a punishment carried out by individuals on a suspected criminal without any legal authority. Such criminal will experience a lot of pain before life is finally gone out of him/her.

He/She can be hit with different materials such as wood, broken bottles, steels, stones etc anything possible just make to sure the person is vulnerable or temporarily paralyzed and then the final stage comes – burning the criminal naked and alive.

Jungle Justice started in Nigeria close to a decade ago and still no solution has been procured to it.

The Law

According to the Nigerian Constitution,

Section (33) 1 states : “Every person has the right to life, and no one shall be deprived intentionally of his life, save the execution of the sentence of a court in respect of a criminal offence of which he has been found guilty in Nigeria.”

For many years, our law enforcement agencies have failed in being competent. In South-South, Nigeria, it is said that arrested criminals that engage in devious acts such as armed robbery or even murder slip through the hands of the police by paying ‘affordable bails’ instead of charging them to court for their deeds but these criminals will be released will still roam the streets and continue their devilish acts. This is why Nigerians have no belief in the police and it has greatly increased the rate of jungle justice in Nigeria.
Throwback to some jungle justice events:

1. ALUU 4 BOYS (2012)

I’m sure we still all remember these four young men who were battered and burnt alive. The gory video footage spread on YouTube like wildfire,even a policeman was caught hitting them with the butt of the gun,he was later apprehended alongside others who engaged in the act. This incident went viral in the nation and the parents of the deceased are still find to justice.


2. LYNCHING OF KID IN KADUNA(2012)

This happened just weeks after the ALUU boys incident and this time it was just a 12-year-old who was accused of kidnapping a pupil. He was beaten and burnt alive in Kaduna

What’s your take on JUNGLE JUSTICE

Jungle justice.

For some of the grieving victims of the alleged criminals, its justice well served..especially in a nation where d police are easily swayed to turn a blind eye to justice.

But for those with a working conscience, it is barbaric. I don't stand for it.

Nigeria needs to work on the justice system so we can believe in it. Till then, JJ will still be the order of the day. sadly...

The government really have to look into this evil acts, cause it's really bad that such a thing is happening in this country.

Jungle justice is NEVER an option because by killing a thief for stealing, you have committed an even more heinous crime of murder.

I condemn both the crime and the jungle justice... I know that in some cases jungle justice is administered out of frustration due to the inability of the police to fish out those hoodlums so the community decides to protect itself and its properties through any means... I have not given up on Nigeria, I know we will get to an admirable state where we will have very effective Executive, Legislature and Judiciary... God Bless Nigeria

I dont support jungle justice, it's really babaric but truth be said, the police also contribute to why jungle justice is on the increase....
Collect bribes, let the criminals go scot-free, turn a deaf ear to the plea of the endangered residents..... Funny how some even boast about being to prison and coming out untouched, some feel they can do stuff and get away with it....

The only way to stop J.j in nigeria is by making NPF earn the trust of its citizens...

Hmmmmn....this is serious

The lists are endless in Nigeria.
All I can say is that jungle justice belongs to the primitive era and is not welcomed in the 21st Century.
It tells you how we value life in our country even though we are no longer in medieval age

NO

Jungle justice according to the law is not right but as people have opined earlier is because of the justice system in this country and how criminals escape and still come back terrorizing residents that people stick to this

Let's take an opinion poll

Click like to show non support for jungle justice and share for support

No matter d crime...don't think anybody has d right to take a life dat he/she couldn't create...leave justice for God or d law

CAPITAL NO!


Thou the delay on the part of the judiciary and justice coupled with high level of corruption within the security agents is the main reason why many have decided to take the law into their hands citing the principle of retributive justice “an eye for an eye”

We say NO to jungle justice, but it shows that we are still in a primitive society and the citizens no longer believe in the State to protect them which is the key reason Nigeria needs to be restructured (as collaborated by Atiku Abubakar yesterday) so that areas that want to be left behind can be left behind and not be a hindrance to those who want to move forward

Well...people are not smiling.Don't steal from them to avoid stories that touch.

The economy is not smiling now, I have tripled my hustling so I and my family can stay afloat and honestly,I will defend myself even if it means killing or maiming any lazy assss fooool that tries anything funny near me. Would I join a jungle justice mob? Resounding NO.

Bottomline: Don't steal.

What’s your take on JUNGLE JUSTICE

Capital.:::: Yes ohhh;;;;;

I support whatever it takes to stop crime including Jungle Justice In less than 1% of the cases does an innocent person get caught up in Jungle Justice. stealing/arm robbery attracts death by burning alive if caught by angry mob, dt helps to keep ppl off stealing. As for our politicians their end is near esp d corrupt ones

Yes for our corrupt politicians

no

Yes

Yes to jungle justice. Kill them all. I hate thieves.

This is not suppose to be so.. we should try and stop taking laws in our own hands, police are there for us although they are not our friend.

No good justice in the court let the criminals face the risk

People kill might end up found to be innocent of crimes accused of. Jungle justice is a No No! Only competent law court must pronounce people guilty.
