There was drama yesterday when an angry mob stripped naked two men, Alaba Abiodun and Samuel, who were allegedly eating human flesh.

However, the suspected cannibals were lucky as the timely arrival of policemen from the Area ‘F’ Police Command, Ikeja, Lagos State, saved them from being set ablaze.

Earlier, a passer-by along the rail line in Ikeja saw three men in tattered dresses. One of them was making a call and one eating a meat suspected to be human flesh.

The passer-by raised an alarm that attracted the mob which instantly pounced on the two suspect human part eaters. But the one making the phone call managed to escape.

Their problem was compounded when the mob moved to their hideout behind the Ikeja Local Government Secretariat fence and found a cutlass, knife, charms and meat with fat which the mob suspected to be human flesh.

When a detachment of policemen from Area ‘F’ arrived the scene, Abiodun told them, that he was a carpenter but had no money to set up a workshop.

Abiodun claimed to be from Akiniku in Moloney area of Ilaro, Yewa, Ogun State, Southwest Nigeria. He added that he made the hideout his residence as he could not afford to rent a room for himself.

He explained that the meat discovered in their hideout was a cow fat which they eat and not human parts.

After intensive questioning, the policemen were convinced that the suspects were mistaken for human parts eaters and sellers by the mob. They were later released.

Speaking with Crime File on the incident, a police officer who preferred anonymity advised the public to investigate suspected criminals before taking any action.

But for the timely intervention of the policemen, the officer noted, the suspects would have been set ablaze

*deserted thread*

I though it was Igbo people that eat people. This thread will never die and if it is moved to the Crime section eh!

Obinna cannibalism in India

FOR sometime now, destination India has been it for Nigerians seeking cheaper and effective medical treatment. But feelers emanating from that enclave indicate that the raging kidnap saga in the country which unwittingly is making Nigerians in diaspora suspects, as well as targets of attack, may have thwarted the usual high Indian hospitality. While many affluent Nigerians visit India to seek transplant of organs, thereby swelling Indian dealers and doctors pockets, a few are there in search of greener pastures. But now the safety for these erstwhile welcome visitors, appears in doubt following allegations of human parts dealers, man eaters-cannibal and kidnappers from the locals.


The latest sad incident involved two Nigerian men who were beaten silly by an Indian mob crowd over suspicions of kidnap and cannibalism. Since the incident last week, one question has remained on many lips: Is it a case of racism or kidnap?

National Daily Weekend gathered that the incident which at first seemed to be an aggravated misunderstanding between locals and a group of Nigerians living in Ambedkar Colony in Chhatarpur, turned ugly with the immigrants being charged by the police.

The Nigerians duo's ordeal instead of abate, really got compounded by the Indian police which intervened but chose to register a case of kidnapping against them under Section 366 of IPC within 24 hours. The south district police filed the case under this section as locals claimed the accused were allegedly trying to kidnap a boy. But legal experts have said that the section is applied only when the victim is a girl.

Obioro, 34, and his Nigerian friends, meanwhile, are angry with Delhi Police for not arriving early enough to protect them from the angry mob on the fateful Friday night. But they said the allegation against their community that they eat children has hurt them the most.

“We don't eat children. One has to be insane to say something like this”, said Francis, a Nigerian national, who stays in the building where the incident took place.

Francis and his friends said that when the incident took place the entire lane was blocked. “We couldn't escape. The mob vandalized my house and destroyed everything I had. The Indian government should do something about it.”

Locals, however, said Friday's attack did not take place because of their colour, but because Obioro and his friends tried to kidnap 8-year-old Adkil, who managed to escape. “People here were just trying to protect the child. We would have done the same thing if an Indian was involved,” said Mohd Vakil, a local resident.

Obioro fractured his left leg as he jumped from the 2nd floor of the building and was beaten up by the mob. He underwent a surgery at AIIMS Trauma Centre and doctors say his condition is stable.

First Tahiru Aliyu, and now this.

Who doesn't know clifford orji of oshodi ? That canibal of the highest order,no wonder una want southern nigeria so that una go yoruba for isiewu.God no go gree for una.

Why are lynch mobs roaming around all over nigeria and what ís the nigerian govt doing to stop these people?

They're just lynching others anyhow.

Why hasnt the police arrested and prosecuted any of the lynchers?

Even in white countries lynchers do not roam free anyhow without at least some of them being arrested and charged.

How can people be lynching in public like this and the nigerian govt does nothing?

From abuja to lagos to the north.

For goodness sake, you're supposed to arrest any of the lynchers you catch, and make a public example of them.  These animals have been filmed and videotaped while burning others alive for flimsy and unproven allegations yet no arests were made?

Has nigeria reverted to a jungle?

Clifford orji was handed over to the police even though his spot under the bridge was littered with human bodies and parts. Why wasnt he lynched by these other cannibals?

The police didnt properly interrogate this guys they are cannibalist.
these yorubas i know them very well.

Scary! Remember Clifford Orji? So there are many still roaming around Lagos? What happenened to their charms?

I think i saw it on Vanguard.
