This incident, shared on Facebook, has quickly gained attention on the platform.
According to the post, the man had been stealing chickens from the neighborhood for some time, but his luck finally ran out.
The caption reads, “99 days for the thief, one day for the owner this morning in my area,” implying that the man’s repeated thefts finally caught up with him.
In a show of public reprimand, the man was made to stand by a pole with the chicken tied around his neck to serve as a warning to him and others.
As the video circulated online, numerous individuals commented, sharing their reactions and opinions on the incident.
See some reactions below:
Simon: “See jungle justice. This man has been charged and convicted in the court of public opinion via social media whereas the constitution of Nigeria presumes him innocent until the offence is proved beyond reasonable doubt against him. I come in peace. No further comment please.”
Jose: “Like I knew this face, the man is not normal please my honourable rescue him.”
Paul: “Irony of life…the one who stole due to hunger is being seen as the thief while those who steal our common wealth are shield and seen as hero’s. Notwithstanding, stealing is stealing there is no justification to it. But on the other hand if only both are treated the same…🤔.”
Celine: “He is not serious he will not still something big, the money he is going to sell it would not even pay him back the energy he uses in catching it.”
Dauda: “Any negative behavior is from the heart,he should be treated the he behaved to serve as a deterrent to those with similar thoughts.”
