I was returning from CDS today when I saw a man about to be burnt with the infamous tire about to be put round his neck. This was along Abak Road, in Uyo.

I got close. My head said don't save him, he'll probably rob u one day, my heart said be humane young man. Well I did the unthinkable and talked the mob outta carrying on the dastardly act. No, I didn't do it alone. Will I regret this, I leave that to Providence!.

angry

I have both saved a lady from jungle justice and also participated in one

See the links below for 2 true life stories


1. As saviour

TheFacelessMan:
angry

I remember facing a baying mob in 1992 close to Kalakuta Shrine..

A young lady had stolen baby formula because she was a school drop-out and had no one to rely on cry

A crowd of 5 unemployed youth were tearing her clothes when i ran to the scene



I jumped in front of her and used my shoulder to block a plank that was destined to flatten her head.

I quickly pulled off my shirt and trousers to cover her nudity when i recalled

my boxers were torn....they weren't my Xmas ones cry cry cry


The boys shouted on me to get out of the way so they would lynch her. I of course refused.

The touts started splashing petrol on us both....i was in my boxers and shivering that cold August morning.


I knew i had to take action or both me and the young lady would arrive Heaven /Hell in the next few seconds shocked shocked shocked

Blood was rushing to my head, my body taut with the adrenaline surge.... i moved forward and headbutted the leader on the bridge of his nose

I pulled the nearest thug to me like i wanted to whisper to him and i grabbed a fistful of his balls and squeezed with all my strength.

The 3rd thug had a wolfish smile on his face, he struck the match and advanced ever so close.... embarassed embarassed embarassed

To be continued.... cry


[b]Culled from "The Memoirs of The Faceless Man" cool

2. As perpetrator -

TheFacelessMan:
RIP to this guy. But let me share this.

I remember participating in jungle justice once at Computer Village.

This guy had been accused of stealing an Iphone.

When we searched him, he had a Samsung S9, brand new, with his family pictures. No iPhone!

Yet the crowd insisted on lynching him....


I was relishing keeping his phone. Someone had brought petrol and the bonfire was set grin


6 guys had surrounded this slender looking guy.


As they advanced towards him, i saw some pictures and shouted : "WAIT!!!!!!!" shocked shocked shocked


Before the words died in my throat,






Attackers 1 and 2 were floating in the air in slow motion shocked shocked shocked



The would-be lynchee was punching - hard and fast.


Attacker number 3 was flat on his back 0.5 second later.


Numbers 4,5 & 6 started a 100m sprint AWAY from the guy.




His shirt was still snow white when he walked over to me.



"I was keeeeeeeee, keeeeee, keepingggggggg it for you, Sir", I stammered at this boy, at least 8 years younger than me undecided

He stared at me coldly and snatched his phone from my hand.


This was the picture i saw on his phone..... undecided cry undecided
