Jungle justice has become very common in most major cities of Nigeria especially Lagos State. Although people have been forced to take matters into their own hands because the system cannot be trusted to provide justice, mobs have on many occasions meted out to offenders punishments which far outweigh their offences.
This is proven by a report on Information Nigeria, which alleges that a 7-year old boy was lynched in the Badagry area of Lagos for attempting to steal garri from a trader’s shop.
As bizarre as this story may seem considering the fact that the offender is a minor, it may not be totally untrue. In any case, Nigerians have taken to social media to rain invective on the people who mobbed the boy as well as those who stood by and watched without making an attempt to save the child.
