By now, you must have come across a headline saying
“7-year-old boy killed for stealing garri in Lagos” on one of the
popular Nigerian news sites or on social media.
Well, nobody was killed for stealing garri. To be honest, someone was
killed by a mob, but not for stealing garri (cassava grains). The
victim is also a grownup in his 20s not a 7-year-old – as the pictures
show.
The
incident actually happened in Lagos on Tuesday 15 November 2016 .
According to Oladipupo Raphael Dare who first broke the news on
Facebook, the unidentified suspect was lynched by an angry mob and burnt
to death for stealing a mobile phone.
From the story, we can see that Africans are still barbaric (just
like we’ve always been) but nobody was burnt to death for stealing a 50
naira cup of garri.
