I know Itam Junction in Uyo, its a very open place. How come nobody stopped them 🙄. Say No To Jungle Justice ❎

Never destroy What you cannot create. I tell you, Life in prison is dar better than this

Same place i was robbed and brutalised in January on my way back from work

Its poverty mentality that’s just disturbing alot of people in this country

All this jungle justice without proper investigation and prove has killed slot of innocent people

The way ordinary man in Nigeria become the judge and jury of every case despite the lack of material fact and evidence is worrisome.

Say no to jungle justice no matter how true the story might be!! May God say Nigeria, this country has refused to grow and the leaders are busy wacking the molla.
