Mob sets bike ‘thief’ ablaze in FCT

A suspected motorcycle thief has been set ablaze by a mob between Kwaku and Gawu villages in Kuje Area Council of the FCT.

A resident of Kwaku, Samson Ishaya, said the incident happened around 3pm on Sunday, Kwaku market’s day, when men allegedly stole a motorcycle at a drinking joint behind the market.

He said after a man at the joint raised the alarm, commercial motorcyclists gave the hoodlums a chase and arrested one of them while the other escaped after they crashed with the motorcycle.
