Ebeano Supermarket Fire: Patrick Obahiagbon Speak on fate of 9-year-old suspect


Hon. Patrick Obahiagbon has said a criminal liability cannot be secured against the kid in regular court as a result of her juvenile legal status. Hmmm this grammar is too much didn't get anyone at all


The burning of Ebeano supermarket in Abuja and the subsequent viral video involving a minor is generating a buzz on social media.

The supermarket, located in Lokogoma area of Abuja, was engulfed by fire on the 17th of July and a viral video emerged on Monday showing how the fire started.
In the video, a young girl, who is reported to be about 9years old, could be seen setting fire on some items close to some highly flammable items. The little fire resulted in the massive inferno that firefighters struggled to put out.
According to legal experts, there is room for both criminal and civil trial on the matter, but with the involvement of a minor as the principal suspect has changed the dynamic of the case.


Hon. Patrick Obahiagbon, a lawyer and former senatorial candidate, while asked for his view on the subject matter explained that even as the incidence appears to have been a well rehearsed one, but does not seem that a criminal liability can be secured against the 9-year-old.

ChrisOsaMedia.Com reports that, Obahiagbon, popularly known as IGODOMIGODO who was also sympathetic about the unfortunate incident, said “let me start by asseverating that it's a very unfortunate incident and my compassion goes out to the owner of Ebeanor supermarket who has suffered a monumental loss by virtue of the deprecable incident.



The former member House of Representatives who spoke with Chris Osa Media on Wednesday continued by saying “It appears to me that the macabre incident was well rehearsed and premeditated against the backdrop of the precision, brutal specificity and clinical finish that greeted it's dastardly execution.

It does not seem to me that a criminal liability can however be secured in a regular court, given the "juvenileness" legal status of the kid.


It's my view however that she can be a qualified candidate for an aproposical juvenile court but not without the law enforcement agencies determination of unearthing the possibility of tracing the possibility of Esaus hand in the silhouette of events for the kid may as well be a victim herself of some machiavellian forces pushing the agenda of a trade war.
