An unidentified motorcycle robber was mobbed to death by alleged angry commercial motorcyclists, popularly known as Okada riders, in the Karshi area of the nation’s capital, Abuja, last night.

The motorcycle robber allegedly snatched a motorcycle from an Okada rider but ran out of luck when other Okada riders mobilized, chased, and caught him, mobbing him to death in the process, reports Nigerian Tribune.

An eyewitness who spoke to newsmen under the condition of anonymity said, “The guy snatched the motorcycle from one Okada rider around the AA Rano filling station. Other Okada riders mobilized, ran after him, and set him ablaze.

“We have been having issues with thieves snatching bikes from the Okada riders. They even inflict injuries on the Okada riders most times in the process.”

At the time of filing this report, the FCT Police Public Relations Officer, SP Josephine Adeh, when contacted for clarification on the incident, said she would call back but was yet to return the call.
