[Jungle justice:] Angry mob brutally kill armed robber in Oyo (PHOTO)

A robber in Oyo, who specialized in carrying out his
nefarious acts using motorcycles, got more than he
bargained for when he was attacked by a mob and killed.
The unidentified man is said to have completed a robbery
on a petrol station in the Alakia area of Ibadan, the state
capital, when he was chased down and accosted by the
mob.

The robber was then stabbed in the stomach and his other
gang members were beaten mercilessly until they were
rescued by the police.

The Tribune reports:


His gang member and the okada man he used were


not spared either, as they were beaten black and blue


before they were rescued by policemen from


Monatan Division. Two locally-made pistols and two


live cartridges were found on the unidentified


deceased gang member.
The gang was said to have invaded Bambo petrol
station at Alakia area of Ibadan on Thursday, March
20 armed with the two guns. The unidentified gang
leader reportedly shot into the air which attracted the
manager of the petrol station. Leaving his office to
see what was happening, the man was confronted by
the sight of two of his attendants held hostage.
The armed robbers also walked towards him and
collected his money and handsets, leaving after an
operation that did not last more than 10minutes.

Piqued by the effrontery of the young men, the
manager reportedly summoned courage, picked a
motorcycle and went after the armed robbers. On
seeing that he was being pursued, the unnamed gang
member reportedly shot into the air but this did not
deter the people as they got closer to the bike that
conveyed the armed robbers.

He was pulled off the bike and held down while
others continued with the chase of others until they
caught up with them. The leader of the gang was
immediately dealt with as someone among the crowd
was reported to have drawn a knife and slit his
stomach, as the mob hailed when his intestines
poured out. He was said to have writhed in pain
while he held his intestines in his own hands, unable
to talk, until he gave up the ghost.

The state’s police spokesperson, Olabis; Okuwobi-
Ilobanafor, confirmed the incident, saying that the
suspects had been transferred to the Special Anti-
Robbery Squad (SARS) for further investigations.
She added that investigations would prove the
innocence or otherwise of the okada rider.
