The robbers did not only dispossess them of their valuables, they also had time to eat, brush their teeth, bathe and watch a movie on Madu’s television.
Explaining how the incident happened, Mrs. Madu, said: “It was around 1:00am when I went to switch off the generator. After I had done that, I saw them.”
Mrs. Madu said the robbers gained access into the building by damaging part of the burglary proof in the building. She said those that she saw were two even they could be more than that.
P.M.NEWS learnt that the robbers who came in a van were so fearless and were not in a hurry. The first thing they did was that they collected the mobile phones of those in the compound. They removed the sim cards in the phones and returned them (the sim cards) to the owners.
The robbers who were armed assured the occupants of the house that if they cooperate with them they would not be hurt. They locked up Madu’s family and his tenants inside their room.
“They had time to brush, bathe and watch film,” said Mrs. Madu.
She was disappointed that the robbers operated for four hours unchecked despite the fact that they had night watchmen in the area.
“The night watchmen said they knew something was going on but thought it was not something serious,” Mrs. Madu stated.
She added that when the case was reported at Meiran Police Station, the police demanded N 5,000 from them before they could investigate the incident.
She said since then there had been no meaningful investigation on the part of the police.
