A suspected scrap dealer narrowly escaped capture by a vigilante in Ado Ekiti on Tuesday after being found with valuable items, including a generator, grinding machine, and numerous cables. When the vigilante inspected the suspect's load, the individual fled the scene, prompting a chase. Although the suspect managed to evade capture, the incident highlights the ongoing efforts of vigilantes to curb theft and crime in the area. It's clear the suspect was likely stealing under the guise of collecting scrap materials.

Simply shut down all scrap sites. Declare them illegal and let’s have some peace.

These abokis have not let any part of the south have peace of mind. If they are not invading homes, shops and garages, the herdsmen are on the highways wreaking havoc.

All we hear from the security agencies are the following words:

THE PRESIDENT HAS GIVEN US MARCHING ORDERS.

So without marching orders na siddon look for everybody.

I was once a victim. Those Aboki thieves masquerading as scavengers made me loose wire of about 1.4m naira. Both the up and down of the building was wrecked. The owner will not feel the impact too much until you want to re-do the job.

Had to buy wires again ,
Pay electrician
Buy pop cement for some portion of the under decking that will be cut and amended
Pay pop installer
Some part the wires will be permanently damaged .
The work is just too much

Iron condemn. Those guys have vandalised our transformer twice in my estate. And each time, each house was billed 100k for the repairs.
We have now fenced our transformer and padlocked it. And placed a sign at the estate gate "iron condem not allowed in this estate". Terrorists.
