LIB Exclusive: Corpse of young man lynched at Alafia busstop was just removed on Thursday (photos)

On Thursday, LIB visited the crime scene where a young man was beaten and burnt to death by an angry mob on Saturday, November 12, for allegedly stealing phones from a woman at Alafia bustop, Orile and shockingly found out that his corpse was left at the roadside from Saturday when he was lynched, till Thursday morning when an ambulance came to pick up his already stinking corpse.

From what LIB gathered it's normal practice to lynch criminals in the area when they are caught and sometimes it takes as much as two weeks before the corpse of the person is removed from the crime scene as the police in the area don't really care and people have resorted to jungle justice as their own means of survival
