may god punish them
Pls justice must prevail . Evil people.
Na wao!
Has Nigeria degenerated to this extent?
This is sheer wickedness and heartlessness.
Coveting a young man’s motorcycle and killing him is a way out of your misery, if you have such strength to murder him, you could as well channel it to work harder so as to acquire your own.
May God have mercy upon your souls for, justice must prevail.
