THE MENANCE ON OSHODI PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE

This is Oshodi pedestrian bridge linking Ilupeju to Oshodi Isale in Lagos Nigeria.
 On this bridge many has fallen victim of petty thieves (Pick Pockets), a stroll of less than a minute depending on the traffic can be hellish to some. Pockets, wallets, purses, back packs are not safe here, don't be suprise to see someone opening a back pack and taking stuffs out from it, you dear not talk only the brave can ask Kilon Sie le (What's happening?) The prepatrators of this crime are extremly sharp and ever busy, they work in a group of five to eight. You can never find a lone ranger.  But it baffles me to see them opening a backpack and the carrier won't notice the drama behind him.  Till they finish someone will just tap him behind and say bros (Mr) see your bag is open.

South Africa police probe “extremism” element in mosque attack

                            South Africa’s elite police unit has taken over the investigation of a mosque attack near Durban which killed one person because “extremism” is suspected as a possible motive, an official said on Friday.

No suspects have been arrested yet over Thursday’s attack by three men armed with guns and knives in which two worshippers were also injured. Witnesses said the suspects, who set the mosque alight, were Egyptian. “Upon assessing the crime scene it was found that there was an element of extremism to it,” said Simphiwe Mhlongo, a spokesman for the Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation, known ...
