Good evening everyone, I have never experience robbery in my life and I pray never to see one. But I want to share one of my experience of boko attack on my school last year. We were preparing for second semester exams and one evening my friend invited me for a program at his church within campus. As the program was about to end I notice some commotion at the church gate so I was observant. After the service as soon as I went out I heard heavy gunshot (AA) though I wasn't afraid as it isn't the first time I've heard shots like this so I began walking back to my hostel. Students were running helter seketas eh scatter kikiki. So I ask what's going on and I heard that stray bullet hit three students during a fellowship and were rushed to the teaching hospital. Even though I was scared and nervous I remained calm till I got to the hostel and then I changed and pick up my bag and headed for class to study. My dad called me asking about my whereabouts and that of my younger brother. I told him everything was fine that he shouldn't worry and I even lied that we were in the hostel. Obviously rumors was heard in town that boko boys were attack Unimaid. So I stopped by at my friend's shop and waited for him while he was attending to some customers all through there was still heavy shots going on and a military helicopter was patrolling overhead. So while we were chating as if nothing was going on the helicopter opened fire and it was as if it opened fire right at the back of the shop. We just heard screams of RPG and every body in the shop ran out leaving just me and my friend. We managed to close the shop and ran back to the hostel. That night a lot of students ran out of school and slept in town. Funny enough our VC was trying to run away with his family but the soldiers at the school gate stopped him from leaving. That same night as the event was going on governor zulum came in to school to calm down students while the army where handling the situation. We later found out that boko boys attack an idp camp in dalori area very close to school and even tried to reach school before they were stopped. They next day life was back to normal, students flexing up n down as if nothing happened and even making jokes with the event but I thank God for His intervention. And I must say that aside for the politics going on in the army, these guys are really trying putting their lives at risk on a daily basis.

De driver and d woman dragged price 100 naira difference
D driver said 500 d woman wer saying 400 so man left (drivers ND shakara) thinking the women ll beg him ,
He later reversed back and ask the women numbering I think 6 to enter
The women started their own shakara
Before we know what was happening
Armed robber from know where' came out released two shots

Upon sighting d robbers the driver opened front door crossed the road and jumped into one bush

Me I was just inside the bus I had just 1k

And one useless phone

D robbers took money and other valuables from d women

angry angry.

I have had two so far .
First one was in my family house .there wasn't enough funds for my parents so my dad hurriedly built 2 rooms on his land and we moved in ...He was in the Para Military and was hardly around.

One room was for my dad and mum and the kids occupied the other one.

One midnight,we woke up to my mother's voice... begging that she doesn't have money . I was with my two senior sisters and little brother ...We heard a knock on our door and the fear of my mum been in trouble ,we quickly opened the door .

They had already finished robbing my mum ,took all her jewelries ( she just came back from Jerusalem ,was sponsored by Rivers State gvt) , locked her in before coming to our room.

We opened immediately they knocked ,took our phones and all. One held his cutlass on my brother's neck ,that he will cut him if he misbehave ( he was below 17 then) .

They asked the 3 girls to come to the small corridor and pull our clothes. embarassed embarassed embarassed embarassed.
My eldest sister was pleading that they shouldnt disvirgin her and all...I was a Virgin too .

Their boss(I guess) said let him try ,if it doesn't penetrate he'd leave us.

My eldest sister was struggling with him then he left her ...the circle went on. The bastard came to me, checked with his fingers and left cry cry cry.

My middle sister was raped cry cry cry... I'm talking about it because she's late. Died March 27 2012.

I have the guy's picture all over my memory and he'd pay for his sins whether here on earth or beyond.


2nd one was in school.
Back of Chem,Choba



Damn!!!

So sorry to hear about your loss (loss) even after what she went through.

Mehn, I feel so angry and sad right now.

May God continue to give you the fortitude to bear the loss.

Mine was in 2014. In our student's lodge in school. I put on my generator around 8pm, planning to work till day break. My room was so much filled with phones of my lodge mates that I had to provide another extension sockets outside my room for others to also charge without coming into my room to disturb me. I was busy working with two laptops on my table.

At 2am a sudden heavy sleep came on me, but I shrugged it off and brought out my kola and started chewing it. Seconds later, someone passed my door, flashed a torchlight at me and proceeded to charge his phone(so I thought) on the outdoor extension. I became a little unsettled after he passed my door and I couldn't see his head above my window. Again he was unusually silent, He didn't call out any greeting as was usual of our noisy members. so I decided to check him out. I saw huge guy with dagger in his armpit picking up people's phones (I thought he was charging phones). He resembled one of our members. He wasn't aware of my presence, so I said, O boy why are you with dagger this night, is there trouble anywhere? He jumped away with so much shocked and faced me, then I looked at his face and discovered that this stranger was a thief from Hell knows where. We faced each other, like 2 yards apart and speechless for some seconds. He was smelling of alcohol and cigarette and bare chested too with only a jeans short. As I was thinking how best to quickly fight this thief without getting wounded, before our members will wake up to join me, then he started shouting at me.

He said, Are you crazy? Aren't you afraid looking at me? Do you want to fight me? As he was saying so, he brought out the dagger from his armpit. I became afraid and stepped back into my room and locked the door. I looked from the window and saw him packing the remaining phones. So I shouted Thief Thief, but everyone were fast asleep. Then I became more afraid, that he will come after me when he is done with outside and my door is a light wooden one too which he can easily kick open. I was so angry and afraid at the same time. I took my chair, broke the ceiling and jumped into it. The loud sound from the ceiling woke up our lodge security man up and so many people too. Within seconds, the whole lodge members of about 20 people gathered at my room, but the guy was gone, soon we heard the sound of a motorbike, start up. before we could rush outside the gate they had zoomed off. We have always heard of how hostels were robbed while everyone were asleep but we haven't seen such a thing in our's before. As we were one of the most secured hostels, and we had a security man too. people whose phones were picked were crying.

We later learnt, that these robbers use charm prepared in the Cemetery or burial ground. They take a broom stick or two and dip it into the tomb of a dead person. They will leave it there for a whole day or two before they take it away. When they dip that same broom stick in front of any gate they want to rob its occupants, everyone in that house will fall asleep instantly, just like the dead in the cemetery till they are through and remove it.

NOTE - any typo you see, carry am like that, I was watching Chelsea's match while typing this, if you no fit read, jump am pass.

So I grew up in the hood where there were no robbers, but many cultists, actually, na God talk say I no go join, so I was 100% street smart.

I moved to Lagos and my armed robbery experience happened less than 3 weeks ago. I went for a 1 week getaway with bae from the island to the mainland, I had a budget of 10k per night for the hotel accommodation, but I needed to do something at badagry, so I sent the accommodation money to Bae to get a good hotel while I join her at Ojo where we choose the location to be.

So I went to badagry and spent 2 days completing the project I was meant to do in badagry and then went to ojo to meet her, she took me to one terrible looking hotel called Fooma hotel around first gate, for those who know Ojo well. I was not happy with her but she had paid already, I asked her why she picked this hotel and she apologized saying she was looking to cut cost since we will still eat and do other stuff, well, I accepted her apology and decided to manage it.

It was a terrible experience tho, no AC, just a fan, the hotel only turns on the gen by 5pm, and most times, there is no power, it affected my work badly as I needed light to work on my PC, so I just decided to waive work for the week and focus on Bae. It was evening, the first thing I noticed was prostitutes flooding the hotel at night, I was not happy at all, so we usually stayed in all night, we could not go to the bar, etc, I endured sha. We had fun for the first few days, one other bad aspect of the useless hotel was that random people kept on knocking at our door each time they notice I am not in, saying they want to talk to bae who is even more security cautious than i, she will never open the door, she told me of one guy who even had the guts to follow her asking to speak with her, i asked her to show me where he was but he was nowhere to be found again.

one day, i went out to get something, and on my return, bae told me a guy came and knocked asking her to open the door but she said he should return when I return, then the guy went and spoke to one of the room attendants who came to knock too asking her to open the door, she told him to return when I come back, as soon as she told me, I told her to dress up let us go to the reception, i went to the attendant and manager and warned them never to come near my door again until I leave this hotel, this was a hotel that water must finish in the tank every morning, when you complain, they will fetch water in a bucket and bring to your room, I just taya for the useless place.

One Friday, I was feeling very lazy and did not want to leave the hotel that day, but we had to go eat that evening, so I told bae we should go somewhere close, she agreed, as we dressed up and was about leaving, she received a call from a friend who invited her to join her and her boyfriend at one eatery at car wash, I told bae i did not want to go far cos my spirit was not letting me, but she cajoled me since that her friend was one she always spoke to me about and wanted me to meet, we sha went, ordered for food, I ate mine while bae packaged hers, I ordered for 2 extra chicken laps as a takeaway, we had a good time.

Now on the way home, I wanted to use the ATM, first, one guy wanted to fight me at the ATM for no good reason o, I carried the bank mopping stick to wipe him but was collected by the security before they separated us, I used the ATM sha and left.

Again, the car we were boarding, so many criminals around the road were looking at us suspiciously, it was obvious our dressing was attracting them, plus bae was Caucasian, so was very light-skinned and pretty, for their mind, I must have money since this girl is following me, dem no know say na manage me sef dey manage my life, I have been in Lagos for 6 years and this was only my third time sleeping over on the mainland, plus I had a car those other times, so I didn't need my street cred, well, these guys kept starring at us, that was when I knew I would have taken an Uber or something and I needed to be armed too. in the bus, one guy came to the window and was staring straight into my eyes while his guys were behind him, I jejely closed the window, I knew they were looking for a reason to begin fighting me so as to take things from me, we left sha.

On our way back, we were walking to the hotel, all of a sudden, 3 guys on okada appeared from nowhere, immediately the first alighted, he pulled out a gun and up it on my head, the second was with a knife and put it on bae, this was just by the roadside o, it was not dark, and people were still out, plus we were less than 10 steps away from the hotel, it was around 9 pm, as soon as I saw the gun and knife, my street cred kicked in, I wanted to wrestle him with the gun cos the fool had the gun very close to me, I could easily hit it and struggle with him, plus I was bigger than this guy, I could deal with him, but I just thought about the others, they could overpower me, plus bae was in danger, so I decided to keep calm. Immediately i saw him, I threw my newly bought redmi note 9 phone inside the gutter, I was not holding any money aside my chicken cos babe collected all the money I withdrew and put in her purse prior. as soon as the guy put the gun on me, I remembered where I was coming from, how rugged it was and how this was never gonna happen to me where I come from, and just a few weeks ago, a girl in my area died of knife stabs because she was struggling with phone thieves, the news was even on nairaland front page, they searched me and did not find nothing, I was concentrating on the guy with gun when I heard bae screaming, immediately, the guy gave her a loud slap, and was taking the knife towards her, that was how I quickly went between them begging the guy to chill, I screamed at bae as she was struggling with them for the bag, so she removed it and gave them, her phone was in it, my atm card and hers, my mifi router, and 7k of the money I withdrew, plus other items, immediately, they took the bike and ran away, just as they were leaving, a man came over and asked what happened, I said we were robbed and I pointed at the bike on high speed, the man quickly swung into action, stopped another bike and went after the thieves. soon people had gathered around and were sympathizing with us, bae was crying already, i consoled her and soon tried to pick my phone in the gutter, that was when i realized that the gutter was filled with black deep dirty water, immediately, i gave up the phone cos i knew there was no way we would find it, people encouraged us to search for it but i refused, surprisingly, bae refused and said we must look for it, she screamed at me when i was telling her to leave it, na so she dive inside dirty black gutter dey find phone o, put her hand inside the extremely dirty water with maggots sef, i was really embarrassed, her white dress was stained already, what a night it was, just as i managed to convince her to leave it after almost 15 mins of searching, the man who went after the robbers came back, his wife was waiting for him with us, he said the thieves came from School, that he chased them but they entered a dark place he doesn't know so he could not follow them as it was dangerous, he said his bike was stolen around the same area too that was why he promised that he must help anyone he sees being robbed, he sympathized with us and just as we were about leaving, i turned and saw bae inside the gutter again, the man asked what she was doing there, she said my phone was inside, the man went home and brought a rake, na so we find the phone o, removing all sorts of sand and dirt in the gutter, after about 20 more mins, bae found it, i knew it was gone already, i thanked the man and we went back to the hotel.

It was a really terrible night, bae was unsettled, I slept off trying to console her, the food and chicken laps I brought, I could not eat sef, it tasted bitter in my mouth, by morning, she was a bit better, had woken up, cleaned everywhere and washed all the clothes, I was just admiring the gift God had given to me, well, we went straight to Alaba where I got her a Gionee phone she liked while I bought my note 9 again. I had gone way over budget for a 1-week trip, almost 300k spent when the original budget was not even up to 120k sef, well, I was glad everything was fine, the only problem was that my old phone refused to be fixed as the panel got damaged, and bae could not retrieve her line as she did not do the registration herself.

It was a terrible experience, I quickly got myself a jackknife and side bag and was 101% street smart from then on, my walking changed, my dressing changed, enough of the ajebo stuff, they want it street, then let's give them street, that was the only time I considered getting a gun for myself.

The next morning, i went to complain of no water as usual, but i noticed bloodstains on the floor, I traced it and it went downstairs, i went to the manager and complained, he said they were investigating it, so when I went back upstairs, I noticed there was much blood stains on our door handle, it looked like someone injured on the hand tried opening the door, as I was asking bae to come and see, one of the prostitutes on my floor opened her door, i asked if she knew what happened and that was how she explained that robbers came to the hotel at night and were knocking all the doors, ha!! robbers in a hotel ke? I never see o. she said one of them got injured while trying to scale the fence, this was a hotel that had 3 security guards o, only God knows how it happened, she said the robbers turned off the gen and wanted everywhere dark to operate, that the manager went to check why the gen went off, that was when he saw them and screamed forcing them to take off, i investigated many doors and realized the robbers only tired to open ours, but went to many other doors, that was when i knew it was possible we were the target, immediately, i asked Bae to arrange her things, we were leaving this hell hole and never to return, we checked out and left, we completed the week at a nice hotel called Masvi hotel, it was much more secure, professional, with armed police and security, a pool, a bar to go chill and more, plus it was just 1500 more than the hell hole we just left.

Now, any robber I see, I go join beat am o, it was a really sad experience, I am back on the island where they are far saner people and still can't calm down as I am still very careful and alert even while in my house.

sorry for the epistle, FOOMA HOTEL IS A USELESS HOTEL, PLEASE NEVER GO THERE IN YOUR LIFE.

Thank God for your life, you have a good girl as well

Last year December,arm robbers attacked our compound,they visited all the apartment, collecting all valuables and dishing out slaps to those who were forming strong headgrin

Our landlord who was living at the extreme end tried calling police before they got to his own apartment but police say no fuel for Hilux

they raided all the apartments and when they got to mine,they ransacked everywhere but they could not find anything valuable cause I was broke as hell,the next thing arm robbers remove koboko(horse whip) and started flogging me mercilessly, after flogging me for like ten mins the oga told them to stop,he told me to stand up but, my back and buttocks was sore,I was in severe pains,i managed to stand up while receiving occasional slaps from the gang,the oga told me that they flogged me because am too broke,he told me that the flogging was to motivate me to hustle so that the next time they come,I will have something for them.

Cutezt:
NOTE - any typo you see, carry am like that, I was watching Chelsea's match while typing this, if you no fit read, jump am pass.

So I grew up in the hood where there were no robbers, but many cultists, actually, na God talk say I no go join, so I was 100% street smart.

I moved to Lagos and my armed robbery experience happened less than 3 weeks ago. I went for a 1 week getaway with bae from the island to the mainland, I had a budget of 10k per night for the hotel accommodation, but I needed to do something at badagry, so I sent the accommodation money to Bae to get a good hotel while I join her at Ojo where we choose the location to be.

So I went to badagry and spent 2 days completing the project I was meant to do in badagry and then went to ojo to meet her, she took me to one terrible looking hotel called Fooma hotel around first gate, for those who know Ojo well. I was not happy with her but she had paid already, I asked her why she picked this hotel and she apologized saying she was looking to cut cost since we will still eat and do other stuff, well, I accepted her apology and decided to manage it.

It was a terrible experience tho, no AC, just a fan, the hotel only turns on the gen by 5pm, and most times, there is no power, it affected my work badly as I needed light to work on my PC, so I just decided to waive work for the week and focus on Bae. It was evening, the first thing I noticed was prostitutes flooding the hotel at night, I was not happy at all, so we usually stayed in all night, we could not go to the bar, etc, I endured sha. We had fun for the first few days, one other bad aspect of the useless hotel was that random people kept on knocking at our door each time they notice I am not in, saying they want to talk to bae who is even more security cautious than i, she will never open the door, she told me of one guy who even had the guts to follow her asking to speak with her, i asked her to show me where he was but he was nowhere to be found again.

one day, i went out to get something, and on my return, bae told me a guy came and knocked asking her to open the door but she said he should return when I return, then the guy went and spoke to one of the room attendants who came to knock too asking her to open the door, she told him to return when I come back, as soon as she told me, I told her to dress up let us go to the reception, i went to the attendant and manager and warned them never to come near my door again until I leave this hotel, this was a hotel that water must finish in the tank every morning, when you complain, they will fetch water in a bucket and bring to your room, I just taya for the useless place.

One Friday, I was feeling very lazy and did not want to leave the hotel that day, but we had to go eat that evening, so I told bae we should go somewhere close, she agreed, as we dressed up and was about leaving, she received a call from a friend who invited her to join her and her boyfriend at one eatery at car wash, I told bae i did not want to go far cos my spirit was not letting me, but she cajoled me since that her friend was one she always spoke to me about and wanted me to meet, we sha went, ordered for food, I ate mine while bae packaged hers, I ordered for 2 extra chicken laps as a takeaway, we had a good time.

Now on the way home, I wanted to use the ATM, first, one guy wanted to fight me at the ATM for no good reason o, I carried the bank mopping stick to wipe him but was collected by the security before they separated us, I used the ATM sha and left.

Again, the car we were boarding, so many criminals around the road were looking at us suspiciously, it was obvious our dressing was attracting them, plus bae was Caucasian, so was very light-skinned and pretty, for their mind, I must have money since this girl is following me, dem no know say na manage me sef dey manage my life, I have been in Lagos for 6 years and this was only my third time sleeping over on the mainland, plus I had a car those other times, so I didn't need my street cred, well, these guys kept starring at us, that was when I knew I would have taken an Uber or something and I needed to be armed too. in the bus, one guy came to the window and was staring straight into my eyes while his guys were behind him, I jejely closed the window, I knew they were looking for a reason to begin fighting me so as to take things from me, we left sha.

On our way back, we were walking to the hotel, all of a sudden, 3 guys on okada appeared from nowhere, immediately the first alighted, he pulled out a gun and up it on my head, the second was with a knife and put it on bae, this was just by the roadside o, it was not dark, and people were still out, plus we were less than 10 steps away from the hotel, it was around 9 pm, as soon as I saw the gun and knife, my street cred kicked in, I wanted to wrestle him with the gun cos the fool had the gun very close to me, I could easily hit it and struggle with him, plus I was bigger than this guy, I could deal with him, but I just thought about the others, they could overpower me, plus bae was in danger, so I decided to keep calm. Immediately i saw him, I threw my newly bought redmi note 9 phone inside the gutter, I was not holding any money aside my chicken cos babe collected all the money I withdrew and put in her purse prior. as soon as the guy put the gun on me, I remembered where I was coming from, how rugged it was and how this was never gonna happen to me where I come from, and just a few weeks ago, a girl in my area died of knife stabs because she was struggling with phone thieves, the news was even on nairaland front page, they searched me and did not find nothing, I was concentrating on the guy with gun when I heard bae screaming, immediately, the guy gave her a loud slap, and was taking the knife towards her, that was how I quickly went between them begging the guy to chill, I screamed at bae as she was struggling with them for the bag, so she removed it and gave them, her phone was in it, my atm card and hers, my mifi router, and 7k of the money I withdrew, plus other items, immediately, they took the bike and ran away, just as they were leaving, a man came over and asked what happened, I said we were robbed and I pointed at the bike on high speed, the man quickly swung into action, stopped another bike and went after the thieves. soon people had gathered around and were sympathizing with us, bae was crying already, i consoled her and soon tried to pick my phone in the gutter, that was when i realized that the gutter was filled with black deep dirty water, immediately, i gave up the phone cos i knew there was no way we would find it, people encouraged us to search for it but i refused, surprisingly, bae refused and said we must look for it, she screamed at me when i was telling her to leave it, na so she dive inside dirty black gutter dey find phone o, put her hand inside the extremely dirty water with maggots sef, i was really embarrassed, her white dress was stained already, what a night it was, just as i managed to convince her to leave it after almost 15 mins of searching, the man who went after the robbers came back, his wife was waiting for him with us, he said the thieves came from School, that he chased them but they entered a dark place he doesn't know so he could not follow them as it was dangerous, he said his bike was stolen around the same area too that was why he promised that he must help anyone he sees being robbed, he sympathized with us and just as we were about leaving, i turned and saw bae inside the gutter again, the man asked what she was doing there, she said my phone was inside, the man went home and brought a rake, na so we find the phone o, removing all sorts of sand and dirt in the gutter, after about 20 more mins, bae found it, i knew it was gone already, i thanked the man and we went back to the hotel.

It was a really terrible night, bae was unsettled, I slept off trying to console her, the food and chicken laps I brought, I could not eat sef, it tasted bitter in my mouth, by morning, she was a bit better, had woken up, cleaned everywhere and washed all the clothes, I was just admiring the gift God had given to me, well, we went straight to Alaba where I got her a Gionee phone she liked while I bought my note 9 again. I had gone way over budget for a 1-week trip, almost 300k spent when the original budget was not even up to 120k sef, well, I was glad everything was fine, the only problem was that my old phone refused to be fixed as the panel got damaged, and bae could not retrieve her line as she did not do the registration herself.

It was a terrible experience, I quickly got myself a jackknife and side bag and was 101% street smart from then on, my walking changed, my dressing changed, enough of the ajebo stuff, they want it street, then let's give them street, that was the only time I considered getting a gun for myself.

The next morning, i went to complain of no water as usual, but i noticed bloodstains on the floor, I traced it and it went downstairs, i went to the manager and complained, he said they were investigating it, so when I went back upstairs, I noticed there was much blood stains on our door handle, it looked like someone injured on the hand tried opening the door, as I was asking bae to come and see, one of the prostitutes on my floor opened her door, i asked if she knew what happened and that was how she explained that robbers came to the hotel at night and were knocking all the doors, ha!! robbers in a hotel ke? I never see o. she said one of them got injured while trying to scale the fence, this was a hotel that had 3 security guards o, only God knows how it happened, she said the robbers turned off the gen and wanted everywhere dark to operate, that the manager went to check why the gen went off, that was when he saw them and screamed forcing them to take off, i investigated many doors and realized the robbers only tired to open ours, but went to many other doors, that was when i knew it was possible we were the target, immediately, i asked Bae to arrange her things, we were leaving this hell hole and never to return, we checked out and left, we completed the week at a nice hotel called Masvi hotel, it was much more secure, professional, with armed police and security, a pool, a bar to go chill and more, plus it was just 1500 more than the hell hole we just left.

Now, any robber I see, I go join beat am o, it was a really sad experience, I am back on the island where they are far saner people and still can't calm down as I am still very careful and alert even while in my house.

sorry for the epistle, FOOMA HOTEL IS A USELESS HOTEL, PLEASE NEVER GO THERE IN YOUR LIFE.

No sorry for the epistle, that was a brilliant long read.
You write so dammn good. And honestly I wished we could have our veri own gloak. We only permitted to have a pump which must be at home at all times which sucks. Damn shotguns are slow n ain't mobile enough to move in these unsafe streets.
