A yet-to-be identified man has been reportedly set ablaze by angry mob at the North Bank suburb of Makurdi, the Benue State capital for attempting to steal bike from a motorcyclist in the area.
Sources said that the incident happened on Wednesday, 30 March, 2022 in the morning after the suspect and his accomplice tried to rob a commercial motorcyclist of his bike.
One of the sources disclosed that the suspect and his partner poised as passengers and requested the commercial bike rider to convey them to somewhere around Lafia garage in North Bank, and that on the way around SRS junction they tried to rob him.
The witness further said, “It was in the process of the struggle that a vehicle rammed into the three of them. One of the suspects escaped as a mob was attracted to the scene while the other was burnt to death and the rider taken to the hospital.
