Vigilantes arrest suspected generator thief in Makurdi
A young man has been arrested for allegedly stealing a generator in the Welfare Quarters area of Makurdi, Benue State. The incident occurred on the morning of Tuesday, April 29, 2025.
Residents of the area reported that generator thefts have become increasingly common, often going unnoticed until the power supply is suddenly cut off. In many cases, locals assumed the generators had simply run out of fuel, only to discover they had been stolen.
“One more thief was caught this morning in Welfare Quarters, Makurdi, for stealing a generator,” a resident said. “Fortunately, the vigilante group intervened.
He’ll face serious consequences, but unlike others before him, he’ll get a proper trial instead of jungle justice.”
The suspect is expected to be handed over to the appropriate authorities for further investigation and prosecution.
