Not necessarily.

The police are sure it was a robbery incident.

From the report shared with the media, the robbers wanted his phone, and nothing else.

Perhaps, if the police saw an assassination angle (the way some Nairalanders are seeing it), the cousin would definitely become a key suspect.


I think its because the police have not explored all the necessary angles. That a phone is missing does not conclude that its a theft issue gone bad. In law they call it prima farcie, on the face of it, robbery would have been adjudged to be the case but of course Nigerian police is lazy when it bores down to thorough investigation.

I remember when three guys tried to rub my two phones, I tried to resist. Immediately one of them brought a gun, I switched mode, prostrated on the ground slowly and started calling them my Uncles, Daddy, Chairmen, happening guys, finest freshest guys.

I begged them to collect the phones that it belongs to them I was only keeping safe for them. I even gave them my pin and told them not to forget it oh.

They laughed and called me a jonsing guy, collected my phone's and left. I can not come and kill myself for ordinary phone. When these boys jam you and request for your phone, just give them and stay alive, you will definitely buy anyone. So Sad. RIP Man
yes naw new phone One out every day �

It is not about the missing phone, but eyewitness accounts.

I don't see any cause to suspect assassination in this case.

That place is notorious for this kind of crime.

Many people claimed to have been robbed there, even at gunpoint.

There is nothing special about this particular case that warrants exploring nonexistent angles.

Except someone is lying about the order of events or the brain behind the assassination is extremely smart and thorough.

Even in sane climes, the police don't go out of their way to explore angles except there is indeed a solid reason to, or someone insists that they have a solid reason to suspect foul play.

In Canada, there are good and bad places. In fact, there are places (mostly downtown) that is not advisable for you to walk alone by at night.

How many phones will the robbers steal to become millionaires? Hungry idiots.

The lad acted in a very foolish manner.
but If you come to me even with a rubber spoon I would give you everything even if you want up to my boxers.


It's usually reflex action that makes a person to attempt to resist an armed robber. It's not something they do consciously.

The killers of these young man are our politicians. The hoodlums are part of their creation. Money meant for the masses is pocketed by a few group of people. Such a sad situation. All the dreams and aspirations cut short.

RIP young blood, your leaders were simply too greedy

Further investigation should be carried out. It sounds like assassination to me.

All his competitors and work rival should be queried.

i dont think it's assassination. The whole Jibowu down to Herbert Macaulay is a hotbed of crimes. I cant count the number of times my colleagues have had their bags and phones snatched in that area.

To those criminals, shebi killing this young man have solved all your life's problems abi? You don't have any other problem in life abi? now all your problems are now solved abi? Now that you have stolen that phone, the phone will stay with you forever abi? Or maybe you sell it, the money will be enough for you for a lifetime & you will never want any other money in life abi? The truth is that; human wants are insatiable. Is the want worth taking a life? You killed someone or people, but when it's your time/turn to die you become scared of death. Why? Well, my opinion doesn't matter anyway, because nobody cares after all.

Lagos state govt must wake up and kill all the hoodlums in Lagos. Anybody that doesn't have a house and sleeping under the bridge should be bundled and sent back to wherever they came from. If they come back to continue to sleep on under the bridge, streets, roads, they should be arrested in the night, killed and thrown into the ocean. These boys are getting too much and sadly majority of them are yoruba boys. They are everywhere you go to, oshodi, ketu, agboju, first gate, mile 2, ikorodu, agege, lagos island,bunch of useless children with cursed parents. You cannot even change a flat tyre in peace on the highway or even the streets, the cursed animals will come out to harass and rob you. The police will see them and look away because there's no money to extort from them. Na fresh young men them go dey pursue up and down.

So you think he wanted to "come and kill himself because of ORDINARY phone"? You are not better than he is, he was only unfortunate whilst you were fortunate not to have been accosted by brutal criminals high on weed.

Why kill a promising young man for mere toy called phone as if collecting the toy is not enough? Some people are just so daft and useless

That's the thing.

Those whom society overlook will always take advantage of those who society looks up to.

This is what it means when they say the middle class and rich will not know peace as long as society is not fixed.

It's unfortunate it happened to this young chap. But it happens everyday to other people too.

May his soul find rest.

This country call Nigeria is an Harbinger of Despair of Devil or all the bad things the world could accommodate. Nigeria is in ground Zero where sorrow and pain is the order of the way. A country where her brilliant souls are being wasted everyday with a legal killing documents of support from the government or monstrous leaders. Nigeria is a Doom and dark opaque that has a short tunnel to hell. Nigeria, Nigeria! If you love to live, avoid Nigeria, if you crave for progress, avoid Nigeria. If you value your life, plan to depart Nigeria. God has turned His back against Nigeria since the 1960+.... Nigeria is alive and together because of past and old glory.

David died just like that for No cause of his but for the bad governance, bad system in a godforsaken country call Nigeria, a shithole of the deepest shitholes, crawling with maggots ridden leaders who have lost shames. I weep no more for this country but just had to shed the little tears in my eyes for David. May Your Soul Always be peaceful where ever you are. I believe where you are can't ever be a shithole like the one that murdered you in your prime.
