Well this story is an eyewitness account
from the 5th boy who escaped.
He narrated this to Ugo and Lloyd’s friend and pleaded that his identity be kept
secret. This is an eyewitness account,you can believe it if you want or dont.
The boys
"ignorantly" got themselves involved with a
cultist who operates with a gun, all in a bid
to get their money back from a debtor.
Below is what actually happened according
to an insider....
An indigene of Aluu owed Ugo some money
and had vowed not to pay back. Ugo who
was popularly known as Tipsy had gone to
meet with a fearless University guy (name
withheld) to help them track the debtor who
had been on the run.
‘Mr Fearless guy’ (a
cultist) who was feared by many in the
school had accepted to accompany his
friends to get the debtor tracked down in
exchange for a percentage of the debt.
They were joined by their room-mate,
Chidiaka.
On their way to the place, they met
one of their friend, Tekena, who knew
nothing about the plan, and he joined, just
for the hype as is normal with young boys
of juvenile age. That made 5 boys- Ugo,
Lloyd, Chidiaka, Tekena and ‘Mr Fearless Guy’
that got to the debtor’s compound.
Unknown to the other four, ‘MrFearless Guy’
who was contracted to intimidate the
debtor just to get the money paid, went
with a gun. When they got to thedebtor’s
house around 12am, a fight ensued, as the
debtor confronted them. A next door
neighbour, a woman started shouting on
top of her voice, that they were thieves,
attracting other bad boys aroundthe area,
whom were mainly “vikings”, the rival cult
group of the one on contract.
They swung into action by tipping the
vigilante group who confronted the boys,
referring to them as thieves. In the process
of beating the boys, while they were trying
to prove their innocence, the fifth boy, ‘Mr
Fearless Guy’, who is a cultist, brought out
his gun to scare the people, and he escaped,
leaving the rest four at the mercyof the
villagers.
The explanation they tried to give fell on the
community’s deaf ears as the people
insisted they must be killed....and
unfortunately they were lynched!If this
story is anything to go by, then that explains
why the boys were giving different stories
while being interrogated by the Aluu
Chieftain and vigilante group, they were
stunned, confused, didn't know the other
guy was with a gun and under pressure.
And the uneducated vigilante group and
maybe a high school drop out Aluu chief
and wretched villagers felt they knew better
to pass judgement...
Nigerians are not what people think we are
due to this. Aluu is a name I never heard of
not until after that fateful day. One poor
wretched community can not spoil what we
are and what we stand for. we are Nigeria
and we will fight for rights, we will pick up
from this and stand for what we believe in;
and the world will stop labeling us wicked,
evil.
