Another robbery in Ijaiye Lagos (photos)

A LIB reader shares his sad story below...
Yesterday the thieves came calling. They entered my compound at ijaiye in lagos and vandalized two vehicles. Both Lexus RX 300. While on the second vehicle I woke up and heard sounds downstairs. I peeped out through the window and saw two men, one was in the vehicle loosing the looseables while the other one was watching. I shouted 'who is that?!' And their reply was that 'come down naw'. Such audacity in a crime-filled city like Lagos! I started screaming 'thief! Ole!' And the thief inside the car jolted and wanted to run, the other one simply told him 'continue wetin u dey do jor' and they went on for another 30 minutes! After which they scaled the fence and escaped in a car they came with and parked outside. I called the phone number of the DPO of the nearest police station immediately and he sounded too drowsy or inaudible, I tried another police officer's number and they said they are on their way. I called a few other neighbours and landlords too while screaming 'Ole' till they left.
The police however showed up, but only about an hour after the thieves had left. And the only question they could ask was who we suspected.
Who else if not the police themselves. Such audacity and confidence is only common amongst them or thieves that have a backup in them. Two streets away they did the same to another lexus RX350, I don't have the pictures from those ones. But here are some from my compound.
It is Christmas again and Nigerians are helpless once more in the hands of over-confident thieves and robbers, incompetent police and confused government. God help us all.

Linda its very commons in the mainland. i had the same issues in Lere. They came for my car 6 times last year. called the police on all occasion and they showed up 2 hrs after. The last one while i was shouting one person outside just said if i come out they will blow my head. Linda no body told me, i park out over night and locked the house wake. my wife and kids where traumatize with the whole incident. even with the sound of the panic alarm they still did what they wanted to and left. Lagos is just something else.

Another any thing that i am shock to see in a city like Lagos is Ritual. no body seem to talk about it and they know those putting stuff in junctions all around surulere. hmmmmm dont want to call any tribe.

Over confidence at its peak! Poster, you tried your best.
I'm still looking at this Ambode's regime. He should do something about security & very fast.
The slow motion thing is common with Nigerian police.

This is sad....very sad. And I hate to think that it cud be the police, but i wont be suprised if they r the ones

Ogbemudia said...

The Saloon Cars Gov. Ambode bought were meant for the Later when the things have become civil. What the Police need are Armoured Personnel Carriers and Hiluxes, Soldiers & the Navy should be included in the beat they are less corruptible & honorable than the Police
