Two unidentified persons were stoned to death in the Sabo, Yaba area of Lagos State after being apprehended by youths for allegedly robbing a resident of his phones.

McNeil Road: The suspects.
Reportedly, the alleged robbers attacked a 79-year-old man, Pa Emmanuel Thomas, in his apartment around 4am on Saturday.

The elderly man said that the robbers beat up his guest and demanded that he gave them all his money.

He said, “I was in my room and a guest was in my sitting room. But because there was no electricity, I opened the main doors for cross ventilation. A few minutes later, two young guys barged into the house.

“One of them slapped my female guest who was in the sitting room and snatched her phone and charger, the other guy told me to give him all my money and I told him all I had was N30 which was kept inside my Bible. They also snatched my telephone and wristwatch.”

It was learnt that prior to the robbery, youths in the area had been suspicious of the alleged robbers, wondering what the strange men wanted on their street at that odd hour.

One of the youths, who craved anonymity, said, “Around 3.30am, I was returning from a carnival when I noticed two strange faces on Little Road. When the guys saw me, they pretended to be fixing an abandoned bus and were talking as if they were a bus driver and his conductor waiting for daybreak.

“When I walked past, they continued to roam the street, so I informed one of my friends and together, we tailed them. Suddenly, they entered Pa Thomas’s house and then I heard the elderly man screamed for help.

“We quickly surrounded the house and dared the robbers to come out. When they saw that they were trapped, one of them jumped the fence into the next compound which is on Little Road. I was able to arrest one, while the other one escaped.”

It was learnt that the arrested robber was beaten up to a pulp.

It was also learnt that an hour later, the second robber, who hid inside another compound, was exposed by a resident and was also handed over to the irate youths.

The youths were said to have beaten up the two robbers mercilessly.

It started with the slapping of a female guest and the stealing of phones - and ended in murder!

All should be bought to account.

Nigerians ahould learn NOT to take the law into their own hands - whatever the provocation.

True...

But Nigerians do that because the police and law has failed us times without number.
If the robbers got arrested, they would've been bailed the very next day and they continue to rave havoc on our streets.

Maybe......Just maybe...the fear of being mobbed will be the beginning of robbery stopping.

I agree. The Nigeria Police force is a farce.

However the thought that a fellow Nigerian can kill someone and return to his/ her daily life without a hint of remorse is more frigthening! I could be living next door to a man/woman who has murdered. I could be next. All it needs is for someone to shout out "thief" - when I stole nothing - only to end up being battered to dearh or burnt alive!

Many, many innocent people have lost their life to jungle justice.

YOU could be next!
