I'm waiting for the day when the Nigerian Police will be interested in the well-being of the masses instead of seeking for incriminating the people.

"Social Media Ruse"

No Oga Police, the video is a Nollywood stunt.
No need to investigate.


I don't want to ask where the Nigerian police where when all of these happened.
How was the body evacuated?

Assuming its not Lagos, have the police exhausted their network to confirm that this incident never happened.

The death of this boy is heartbreaking. I cant barely watch 15seconds of this clip

Cant ever hide my hatred for police.

Reason why I don't care if bad or good things happen to them.

Few days ago, there was a story about a white man who put a blackman who stole in a coffin to scare him.
Some Idiots were quick to bash the white man and tag him racist

Its a good thing the Nigerian Police force is looking into this. However, i have little trust for the police because if it was not condemned on social media they will not take action. Also you could give them a call you could be apprehended lol. True Story

Those Mob are Useless bastards. Most of them will go to mosque on Fridays, church on Sundays to worship their god and beg for forgiveness of their sins. Here they are killing and happily filming a 7 year old for stealing gaari. What a failed society we are in. Hail corrupts politicians, kill petty thieves. I hope the FG can pass a bill against this malady. Any community that carries out jungle justice of any kind on an accused criminal deserves life jail. This is the height of wickedness. Where is our hunanity

People tend to equate poverty with lack of money, but its actually a psychological thing. Poor people think, act and approach life differently, nobody can tell me that guy hitting that boy with that huge plank is normal. That guy need to be locked up forever and so is every other mentally dead physically alive souls recording and taking pictures.

This is Horrible. Naija which way na?

We tend to act very religious, but we don't remember the part of the scripture that says "Let Him who is without sin cast the first stone"

May the soul of the poor boy rest in peace.

This reminds me of ALUU4 same period, 4 years ago.

Kind and Godly Nigerians.

7 year old. You people have murdered sleep. Rancor will never depart from your lives. All of you will die miserable deaths. There will be no peace for you even in the afterlife.

The person that he stole the garri from, now that he's dead, your garri has come back hasn't it? That little quantity he stole was going to stop you from becoming rich. Well now he's dead your wealth is on the way right?.

The people watching and making a movie out of it. You're just as culpable, I'd rather die than stand by and what a child a go through this. How desensitized have you all become?

You go to church every Sunday and mosques every Friday but your hearts are full of wickedness and cruelty. You sit on your holy moral high horses and pass judgment on others for their 'sins'.
You're disgusting.

How will we progress as a country? Tell me how. I know that there are bad people all over the world so it's not strange to see a quirky character kill someone else,abuse a child or do some other horrible thing to his fellow human being.

But we are among the few nations where everyday citizens who see themselves as normal people will gather in the streets in road daylight, kill another citizen in the name of justice and then proceed with our daily activities like nothing just happened. It's a curse if you people don't know. You're cursed

The blood of this boy will never depart from your lives.

MORE REVELATION FROM JOINT ACTION AID....
Not much different from my own findings. . . Read on.
'The true account of the young man lynched and summarily burnt to death at Orile Iganmu last Saturday speaks of the uncertainty and brevity of human life in Nigeria. It was Saturday, the 11th day of November 2016. The venue of this macabre killing Fun was at Augustine Onwualu Street, Orile Iganmu, Lagos.
A woman, (name withheld) was walking along the ever busy road of Augustine Onwualu street, Orile Iganmu. She had an Infinix Hotnote 2 handset with which she was making telephone calls in high pitched voice, frantically gesticulating in the process. Close by, on the same street were a gang of 4 notorious thieves, well known in the area for their dare devilry and viciousness. They were there, waiting, prowling and surveying the entire scenery for a vulnerable victim to rob and dispossessed of their valuables as they often do in the past. And successfully too.
The woman approached. Still talking on the phone and gesticulating with her free arm. She was immediately spotted by the very perceptive eyes of this criminal gang. A brief conference amongst them, she was adjudged a soft target. There was no need for further plans or careful surveillance. After all they had done this successfully in the past. More so, their sheer ferocity makes them a sort of feared mobster in the local vicinity. But it turned out to be a miscalculation. And costly one at that!
They approached and circled the woman who was oblivious of her surrounding and the imminent attack on her person. The robbery attack was swift and very decisive. She was held from behind by two members of the gang. One of them deftly pruned her hand bag off her shoulder and the same time attempted to retrieved the telephone with which she was making calls from her other arm. The last of the gang stood guard, providing cover for the others.
They had during their planning stage misjudged the desperation of a Nigerian woman about to be dispossessed. The victim reacted swiftly. She let the hand free and held on tenaciously to her phone. A struggle ensued. The victim plaintively cried out for help. A motley crowd gathered. The other members of the gang, appropriately appraising the situation fled the scene. The fourth member was not so lucky. He continued to engage in an internecine struggle with victim for the phone. In desperation, he brought out a dagger, and cold bloodedly stabbed the woman repeatedly in the chest, stomach and shoulder. There is a proverb, when a strong animal flirts too much with the trap, he makes his meat available for children to share with teeth.
The gathered crowd became enraged and promptly apprehended the abandoned thief. He was beaten to stupor, Tied up and set ablaze while the maddening crowd continued to bay for his blood.
Joint Action Aid was alerted on Monday when video clips of the dastardly murder went viral on social media. We reported the yet another resort to "jungle justice" to the Commissioner of Police, Lagos state. The video clips were carefully analyzed and some arrest made. The six people arrested through our efforts denied criminal culpability and brought fast talking lawyers.
More frustrating, the charred remains of the alleged thief had been removed. The area council and Orile Iganmu police claimed ignorance of the whereabouts of the corpse. Thus we have a dead zone situation. No dead body, no witnesses and then, most understandably, an unwilling complainant still battling for survival from the grievous multiple stabbing at the hospital.
