BrutalJab:
Op this guy isn't a 7 year old boy but a 20yr old with small body.

He didn't steal garri but a phone after which he stabbed the owner.

Please let's stop misinforming the public.

I copied that from Naij... . I'm not the originator.

Your first incident was a lie

How?

There are thousands of other jungle justice cases that we all don’t know because they are never reported.

When you kill a criminal, you are committing a crime of murder which makes you no better than the criminal.

What’s your take on jungle justice?

This is the 21st century but many cities in Nigeria still engage in some barbaric practices. One of such is jungle justice.


This is the 21st century but many cities in Nigeria still engage in some barbaric practices. One of such is jungle justice.

Almost every week, you must hear at least a story of how people were lynched for stealing or committing one crime or the other and this excludes the ones that go unreported.

Such suspected criminals are often subjected to a lot of pain before life is finally gone out of him/her. They are attacked with sticks, stones, bottles or anything that will inflict serious pain on the person. After which, they burn the person alive.

For some, their punishment is well deserved, it is justice served. They feel they have a right to decide whether a criminal lived or died. But for those with a conscience, it is the height of wickedness. It is just barbaric.

Below are times Nigerians went too far in punishing a suspected criminal.

1. 7-year-boy was beaten and burned to death in Lagos

Photos of a young man who was beaten and burnt to death went viral on Wednesday, November 16. His crime was that he stole garri (a staple food). The report was that he was a 7-year-old boy. However, the police debunked the report saying the person that was killed was a man and not a boy, and investigation on how he died is ongoing. Because it was a man still does not justify the act.

While he was being subjected to so much pain by the mob, others stood by and watched, taking pictures and filming the incident. Some others were screaming ‘hit him well’. Apparently, they have lost their conscience as they thought nothing of taking another person’s life.

Kayrich:
Urbanization is a word for becoming more like a city. When populations of people grow, the population of a place may spill over from city to nearby areas....
The poster seems explaining in the number of big towns associated with the capital city of each state to judge urbanization. Even when states like osun, ondo, akwa ibom etctl that some mentioned with very low business strength have more big towns than abuja, rivers, kano that have heavy population & business depth.
And that's why u see in rivers, lagos, abuja and other big cities, dwellers could go as far to go wider to there other towns even if small to leave there.
U won't tell me u want to rate states been urbanized and not start from the capital to the infrastructure provided and as well as there population depth and also the industries that thrives in them.
Lagos, FCT, Rivers, Anambra, Kano, Ogun(cos of nearness to Lagos), delta, Oyo, abia, Kaduna are my best 10.
One make more money in those states than any other and should be used in rating urbanized states...

Sha, how is Port Harcourt close to Lagos?
Even if that where to be the case, Lagos should be the ones benefiting from Rivers and not the other way round. .... . Most of the things shipped through Lagos are owned by other state but due to the wicked nature of the government, they forsake our ports and give glory to Lagos.
Note: Lagos was a capital, Abuja and Cross Rivers.. ... They were made to standard by the whole federation and not indegenes only, That makes Rivers state the most indegenous developed state and that's what matters.
