Netizens Reactions…
@FrannyOD: “When they see their greedy politicians who stole and are still stealing their destinies they should make sure to replicate the same treatment!”
@FootyAndVibes. Naso you go come online with the wig you stole to oppress others. Thief.”
@Zedoxniyi: “you stole an item, seller is agreeing to the thief dropping a personal item to installmentally offset the bill of the stolen item. Must she pay for stolen item since there is a caught?”
@Lartiano: “Not Supporting Stealing, But Why Forcing Her To Pay By Holding On To Her Phone? Collect Whatever She Stole And Hand Her Over To The Appropriate Authority. She Had Been Disgraced Already Why Forcing Her To Pay.”
@lazfranklin71: “Make the other girl wey dey rush her with questions calm down na , shuuuu. Like say she interrogating the thief is holy. If she talk too much tomorrow her own noodles go leak online and we go watch am.”
@Opsylo_jay: “That’s the only place those people messed up. They shouldn’t have forced her to pay. It’s even better if she gets arrested and let the law takes it course. Reminds me of the story of Tortoise and Snail where Tortoise was the culprit but Snail later was tagged the Villian.”
@Montofigo1: “I’ll never feel pity for any embarrassment faced by a petty thief, so far that no jungle justice is involved. If you’ve been a victim either on personal belongings or from your business, you’ll understand. I’ve been a victim of both.”
So she agrees to drop her phone until she pays for the items she allegedly stole. Fair or nah ? ????????? https://t.co/ee9abkGiWV pic.twitter.com/cDG68DmUo7
