Jabi Lake is a serene environment in the heart of Abuja
This thief should be openly punished for attempting to make the place unsafe for thousands of picnickers that visit daily

Even the people beating the guy look like thieves too.

Very good.

He deserves enough beating before even handling him over to the Police.

The thieves don't have any mercy. Their mission is to destroy, cart valuables away and kill.

All houses built on the shore of this lake will be demolished. It's a public property and should remain so

He should tell his fellow Nigerians that he is hungry and they will let him go lol 😂. Infact he should ask them why they are not into stealing too?

Lazy boy!

That’s one way to make a splash! 😲 Diving into Jabi Lake to escape is bold, but clearly not bold enough to outrun the aggressive swimmers. Kudos to the guys who reeled this thief in, I'm certain cops would have stood aloof.

Reminds me of those wild chases like O.J.’s Bronco or D.B. Cooper’s sky jump.

They just killed a family Man last night, simply because he shouted "thief oh thief oo"... At ikotun area of Lagos state

Kudos to those that gave him a hot chase, boys are not smiling, if you no get, you can beg not stealing.

I do not understand this your story.

was it after the street thief jump into the lake that he was pursued?

while he was being pursued, did two armed robbers attempt to rob someone on the bridge?

what happened to the 2 armed robbers that jumped into the lake?

They should not kill him. Let them hand him over to the police for onward march to prison

To continue with more slaps at the police station. The boy go know say hand touch am. They are merciless when they have the advantage, so they do not get mercy when they are caught.

Clear case of everyday for the thief, one day for the owner.

Sadly, with no evidence of what he stole, he will be set free by the police.

I actually dont have any iota of pity for them, they would have put the victim in similar pains or more if they were successful

I tell you. I was shocked because I couldn't identify who the thief was. Anybody that can wear just pant to chase a thief is someone who has mastered the art of stealing himself.

He should have been given an illuminated solid diamond necklace to serve as a strong deterrent to others. They are the reason I never drive on bridges at night. I have witnessed such an attempted robbery on Mabushi bridge at 7pm one night.
