An angry mob reportedly set a suspected motorcycle thief ablaze between Kwaku and Gawu villages in Kuje Area Council of the FCT.
A resident of Kwaku, Samson Ishaya, on Thursday, August 29, said the incident happened around 3pm on Sunday, Kwaku market’s day.
According to him, the men allegedly stole a motorcycle at a drinking joint behind the market.
He said after a man at the joint raised the alarm, commercial motorcyclists gave the hoodlums a chase and arrested one of them while the other escaped after they crashed with the motorcycle.
“The one who was riding the motorcycle fell down after they crashed and a mob descended on him and killed him, while the other one escaped,” he said.
