Stumbled upon the video yesterday on YT as well. The public execution of robbers were done after the civil war to dissuade people from turning to crime as a means of livelihood. Maybe the man in video was guilty, maybe not. We'll never know.

shocked




This video brings back great nostalgia of the public executions of the military years.
Apologies to the Indomie and Minimie generation who would never relate to this.

For us, it was an act of patriotism to watch our country being rid of people who were against it's greatness.

We watched in keenness.
From watching them marched out of the Black Maria, to being prepared at the stake of drums, then having their last words taken and final prayers given.
Some took their coming doom in good faith while others cried like babies before the volleys of bullet from the soldiers shut their mouths up for them.

I always looked forward to going to Coal camp in Enugu back in the days to watch those live executions.
I was so passionate that I remember not eating for two days just because I missed that of Mamman Vasta.

In retrospect,
It wasn't about a patriotism, I was just becoming a psycho
you are disgusting to a fault.

I have absolutely nothing against the death penalty as long as the convict is undoubtedly proven guilty of the crime...

Say what you like, our leniency towards criminals has only emboldened aspiring criminals... If our punitive measures were harsher, crime would reduce drastically.

Oh my God! This video is gruesome. That accused man does not seem guilty but rather a very intelligent man. If this video was shot in the 70’s then this man proposed a solution to police interrogation that I don’t think was widely practiced in the west even in the 70’s. I hope his case is reinvestigated and the Francis Ojukwu is questioned. Oh, I am sick to my stomach.

Children of hate, perdition and frustration that crime is the order of the day in their miserable lives can never be our friends.
They that are for us and the love of our darling nation are more than the miserable lots.

Now you know.
So find a way of making sure your thread get to the promised land and ignore failures.
Cheers!
Guess someone just got paid 30k?

They should start doing the same to Fulani Kidnappers in Sokoto/Zamfara: their atrocities is getting out of hands, must disheartening thing is people over there dont want to reveal whats going on for fear of some elites.

Jakumo:
The sound quality of this video clip is so good that I am still not sure whether this is a movie scene, or real footage of a public execution.

The prisoner was NOT properly tried, and in his own words, was denied access to a lawyer during the extraction of his purported "confession" in the police station.

Back in Nigeria's recent dark past under military rule, quite a few non-violent petty criminals, and several innocent people were among those who were marched out and shot at the beach by army firing squads, after trials that were often abrupt and patently flawed.

Truth be told, Nigeria's prisons, and even the cells of the condemned therein, are still teeming with people "awaiting trial", who, if without family members prepared to purchase freedom, can and do die in prison, without the benefit of ANY trial.
u my friend is one of the chosen...U must be very very intuitive with a functional cranium housing a well lubricated brain...

Psychosis is subjective.

The Interesting thing about this video is that most of the people involved in this guys murder, good or bad have died as well. Moral, all of us go die one day, na just time. Make the best of your life while you can.

By the way, See the amount of security operatives they used in executing on man, na wa for this country.
