Photo: Human Eaters In Lagos Attacked By Angry Mob And Almost Set Ablaze
There was drama yesterday when an angry mob striped unclad two men, who were accused of eating human flesh after beating them and almost setting them ablaze. Luckily for them, the Police quickly intervened and took them away. Read how Pm News reported it below;
Earlier, a passer-by along the rail line in Ikeja saw three men in tattered dresses. One of them was making a call and one eating a meat suspected to be human flesh.
The passer-by raised an alarm that attracted the mob which instantly pounced on the two suspect human part eaters. But the one making the phone call managed to escape.
Their problem was compounded when the mob moved to their hideout behind the Ikeja Local Government Secretariat fence and found a cutlass, knife, charms and meat with fat which the mob suspected to be human flesh.
When a detachment of policemen from Area ‘F’ arrived the scene, Abiodun told them, that he was a carpenter but had no money to set up a workshop.
Abiodun claimed to be from Akiniku in Moloney area of Ilaro, Yewa, Ogun State, Southwest Nigeria. He added that he made the hideout his residence as he could not afford to rent a room for himself.
He explained that the meat discovered in their hideout was a cow fat which they eat and not human parts.
After intensive questioning, the policemen were convinced that the suspects were mistaken for human parts eaters and sellers by the mob. They were later released.
Speaking with P.M.NEWS on the incident, a police officer who preferred anonymity advised the public to investigate suspected criminals before taking any action.
But for the timely intervention of the policemen, the officer noted, the suspects would have been set ablaze.

Many innocent people are falling victims to evil justice carried out by people who call themselves “born again” They are born again because all they do and talk about is fear, evil & witchcraft in the name of religon.
What kind of god do they represent that is quick to condemn people to death bybeaten to death or burning alive by other human beings? Not my kind of God!

Africa is hell on Earth!!!
It’s only in primitive societies of savages that someone gets judgement even before trial. When someone is “marked” they are punished innocently.
Savages are cruel animals and they get sexual pleasure when they torture others.

“Their problem was compounded when the mob…found …meat with fat…suspected to be human flesh.” Uumh, meat suspected to be human flesh? One can only tell it’s human flesh only if one deals in human flesh. Therefore, that mob is of human eaters, not those two poor souls. Umunabo alyeko ZAMBEEF ati iyo alya umunthu, kano anga nibo – ama Nigerians kuti bakulya umubishi.

There is a growing incident of lynching and murder of suspected witches in different parts of Africa. This wave of witch hunting targets elderly people particularly women. In Nigeria, a court has rejected the bail application of three persons accused of killing a 70-year old woman, Mrs Rebecca Adewumi, for witchcraft.
Mrs Adewumi was accused of being responsible for the sickness of a local evangelist. She was dragged to the palace of the monarch, where she was forced to drink local concoctions. The concoctions were given to her to make her confess or die within seven days. But after seven days she did not confess or die. Subsequently local thugs stormed her house.
They dragged her under the rain and flogged her. According to a family member, her attackers scrapped her hair with broken bottles and used a big scissors to cut her fingers, then placed her on a tyre and set her ablaze. And in Benue state in Central Nigeria, a middle aged man, Vincent Igwe of Enyikpe Ulayi community in Ado local government area was mudered by his siblings for witchcraft. He was reportedly hacked to death by his brothers who accused him of being responsible for ‘unusual happenings and strange deaths in the family and community’

In November, a 70-year old woman alleged to be a witch was battered to death by two men in Lesotho in Southern Africa. The woman was said to be mentally ill. She lost her way and was roaming the streets when she encountered these two men who were returning from a bar. The two men pounced on her, after she allegedly waved a stick at them, and beat her to death.

The waving of a stick was reportedly taken by her attackers to be a kind of muti- a practice which many people in Southern Africa associate with magic and witchcraft.

Poverty, misery, frustration, desperation and hopelessness have driven many Africans to look for scape goats or somebody to hold responsible or blame for the ills of the society. Many Africans consult and rely on spiritual healers and diviners, prophets, imams and pastors who often attribute social problems to malevolent magic and witchcraft. Witches are generally percieved to be enemies of the society. So suspicion of witchcraft evokes feelings of hatred, anger and vengance. People react violently towards anyone identified as a witch in a family or community. People believe a witch deserves no mercy or compassion. They believe a witch should be tortured and suffered to die.
