You are brave, and confident, and we will need the brave, well you will need Security consciousness, and the ability to defend yourself if necessary. But you must try preventative measures, such as,

1) Take things of little value when going out or make your things of little value seem high value with good coverings
2) Do not go out at night if it is not urgent.
3) Avoid strange people, be a good judge of characters on the street[.
4) Move in groups, if you must go out at night.
5) Be prepared for ugly things.
6) Always stay calm, and watch every move they make.
7) Always avoid locations, associated with Crime.
IF you are stranded in a notorious crime location, try to avoid strange people, hide yourself, don't make sounds, watch out and move as fast as you can

on the technological side, always have trackers attached to device with the iCloud, or Imei things


quote author=geek4k post=97648912]Despite the ecstatic vibe attached to the last day of the year (Gruesome 2020 especially), It ended sadly for me as I experienced a near death situation.

On 31st December, I and my friend decided to experience a great cross-over night at Glory Dome, Dunamis Church Abuja. We boarded a bus from Arab junction, Jabi to Lugbe where the Church is located.

Less than halfway through the journey, the bus began to develop issues and finally stopped just before Wuye Arab bridge. We all had to come down from the vehicle in pursuit of an alternative to our various destinations.

I and my friend walked over to the other end of the bridge while we waited for a cab heading our route. Unluckily for us, we stood there for a while, we couldn’t find any cab as most of them were already filled up and most of the other passengers had already gone their separate ways.

It was becoming dark, lonely, and scary giving the nature of the place we were standing. Just less than 4feets our back were bushes, albeit downhill, and underneath the bridge is a railway track, you won’t be able to tell even because it’s filled with outright darkness.

It was becoming tiring and frustrating, we looked down and noticed 3 guys heading our position, they were seated initially for some while, we both thought they were from same vehicle we boarded and frustrated as we were, my friend suggested we team up with them and look for cab together, I jokingly replied “What if they’re here to rob us..?” We both laughed.

Unbeknownst to us, they actually were. They got closer and to where we were standing, subtly attempting to encircle us while I was looking forward to them passing us, my friend ran off immediately, before I could realize they already formed a triangle grid around me each of them bearing long, sharp knives shouting “Hey! hey!! bring your pocket..!!”.

Being ganged up, held down and threatened to be stabbed if you don’t comply, It was indeed a vicious moment for me, and all I could think of was how I could get out of that situation unhurt. But despite the fear that engulfed me, I stood my ground holding my pocket firmly while they tried to forcefully penetrate in with their hands.

My friend was on the other side, almost at the middle of the express road shouting “Thieves..!” to at least call the attention of motorists but they all formed swirled track avoiding him, perhaps thinking it was a plot to get the robbed?

After several resistance from my end, I got stabbed on my thigh by one of the guys, I then had to let go as they emptied my pocket, carting away with my phone and wallet.

Attempting to run back into the bush, I immediately went after the one that got my phone, he kind of lost orientation and was almost headed towards the bridge while his other gang were heading to the bush. He immediately turned around swinging his long knife so I wouldn’t get close, he then threw the phone to his other gang in the bush and they all ran away.

These robbers were skinny, tall hausa boys all wearing face caps, I was so devastated that if I had a gun, I wouldn’t hesitate even in a split second to put three bullets in their heads. Why does bad thing always happen to good people? I’m not insinuating I’m a saint but I’ll never to this to a fellow. Why me?

Anyways, after the sad occurrence of losing everything I had and almost my life, it reasonable to go back home just as my friend suggested, but instead we still waited, get a cab and head to the church where we had the cross over night. I personally didn’t have any good experience despite dancing and joyous experience everyone had there.

I lost my Samsung A30, Gtb, Diamond and Payoneer debit cards and some cash in the wallet all to one night

Anyways, I’m looking for who can track my phone using maybe the IMEI number? the phone pack, receipt are still intact.

Lastly, kindly learn from my story and avoid that Wuye bridge at all cost.

You're right brother,I remembered in 2015,When I and my guys board a vehicle from lokoja to Lagos we went for a POP job in lokoja,and the owner of the job gave us about 500k to give to our boss in Lagos the remaining balance of the contract.We got to oshodi by 12am,when we alighted from the bus,I immediately notice some guys 8 in numbers staring at us from one end of the park.Before we know it,these guys have started following us .i just called my guys and told them what was happening which most of them already know.We immediately brought out our work equipment and converted it to weapons,when these guys saw what was happening they all ran back.

Story didn't end well. I wish you had knocked one of them out of his misery.

Fulani, not Hausa.

Same people and same thing! Most likely hausa miscreants if it was at this area and with the description. Fulanis usually have access to guns but the hausa boys, na dagger and stick be their weapon

If you know the Northerners very well, you will know they are not the same.

Skinny and tall = Fulani
Average height, stocky, dark = Hausa

GayPontiff:
Simple....go back there and bait them.

That's their territory.

Bait them but this time outsmart them and kill them all.

This is not Bollywood mate. Where we usually see criminals being baited. If you're not a trained security expert, don't ever tried to bait a criminal. Its suicidal. They could outnumber you and end your life straight away.

Coolgent:
Complain to your Church CEO he will compensate you from your already paid tithes.

You sound like tribal bigot

Truth hurts your balls,huh? Northerners are animals deal with it.

Nigerians should ask for second amendment and you will see no more attacks.

Bro I have stayed in some ghetto places of Abuja like Dei Dei and the likes so I know how it is. These criminals are the Okada riders in those areas.

The criminals are always skinny because after riding bike, all the eat is bread and Shai then take tramadol.

OMOJOHN001:
Charm you no get,cutlass you no get, Anthony Joshua you no be, Jet li or Jackie chan you no be, you dey drag with Thief.

TUEEEEHHH ON YOUR FACE.

Your friend when be USAIN BOLT, quickly act like street boy while you dey there, TUEEEH ON YOUR FACE AGAIN.

Next time always stay alert. though no body is safe or can't be robbed but a times when you are street wise it helps a lot.

THANK GOD FOR YOUR LIFE.

TUEEEHHH ON YOUR FACE ONCE AGAIN.

This one wey you just dey tuehh tuehh tuehh

Sorry bro god will lift you and help you recover what you lost

Exmilitant , Baba share that experience with those criminals at PH supermarket.

Go back there, this time armed with your guy(who's obviously smarter than you) they will definitely show up.. stab one of them where it really hurts and run as fast as you can. Eye for eye is the language of the street.

The last time i encountered armed robbers i greeted them first with Chairmen i dey hail oo. And then i went ahead to give them all the money i had on me. After emptying my pockets, i doused the tension in the air by jokingly asking them to find me 50 naira wey i go use transport myself go work the next day ... No be me go go dey drag with thief.. No amount of money is worth a drop of my blood.



Na person wey him body complete dey enjoy life.

Lol, them give you the 50 naira?

I grew up in the North. I also stayed in Saburi. While I agree with you that Hausa youths can be quite skinny due to their lifestyles, the skinny and tall criminals are usually the Fulani, the same ones who are the killer herdsmen and bandits.

That spot is a dark spot my friend was rubbed on that bridge two months ago..bro next time do drag with them oh.you are lucky

OP, since you use a Samsung phone, you can easily track your phone by logging in to the Samsung "find my phone" website using ur samsung account. Hope you turned on "find my phone". Goodluck.

U are lucky u werent stabbed in a fatal area of ur body.....never resist to b robbed if d robbers are armed with guns or knives....they will still take wat dey want.......ur life is precious, u cant get it back.

In as much as I sympathize with you, I must say honestly that you did a very foolish thing by standing your ground against people with arms. You are very lucky to be alive. Please next time simply comply and empty your pocket. Of what use is a phone or money to a dead man?

If someone advice you to stay at home and enjoy your crossover you would say No that it must be church...now you have lost things and almost lost your life..and your church CEO dont give a fucck about it or even care. ..he would still be expecting you to give offering to qualify you to receive the new year blessing...!!

Better you put yourself and safety first before any damn church... !! Lots have lost their life trying hard to see and experience God in a church when the true fact is that God is residing in them and always with you and at any place you find yourself...

Take heart...next time learn and use your number six.. even church CEO go out with securities too to their cross over night..that should tell you many things..

i did mine at home and i don't give a damn what people say,have a quiet time with your maker in your house
