The video clip of a teenager, believed
to have been burnt to death in the Orile area for stealing, has
continued to generate discussions on the social media, with many
commentators calling for police investigation into the killing.
A mob at the Alafia Bus stop in the
Orile area on Saturday had caught the boy, whose name had yet to be
ascertained, accusing him of stealing a wallet.
It was gathered that after the boy was beaten to a pulp, the mob got a tyre and set fire to the boy.
A witness, who gave his name only as
Nzekwe, said the mob burnt the boy, claiming that he came with three
accomplices, who escaped after the theft.
