A man has cried out after he was allegedly r0bbed of his gold by a group of men shortly after leaving Millennium Park in Abuja.

According to the man, he had visited the park for a church picnic and was returning to his vehicle when the incident occurred.

He explained that he briefly wound down his car window to allow the hot air inside the vehicle to escape before turning on the air conditioner.

The man alleged that a group of men approached his vehicle, appearing to ask him for money, but suddenly grabbed his gold and fled.

Suspects allegedly stab man during pursuit

He said he immediately drove after the suspects, while some other people also attempted to chase them.

According to his account, one of the people who got close to the suspects was allegedly st#bbed before the men escaped into a nearby bush.

The man said he continued pursuing the suspects towards the area behind the Ministry of Justice, where he appealed to security personnel to assist in chasing them.

He alleged that he even offered to pay the security personnel for their assistance, but they declined to intervene.

“I’m just making this video to create awareness”

The man said he decided to share his experience to raise awareness about the security situation in Abuja and encourage residents to remain vigilant.

In his words:

“I have just been r0bbed… I went to Millennium Park for a church picnic. Coming out of the park, I entered my car. I wound down so that I can turn on the AC so the bad air can come out before I wound up. Some guys came close to me as if they were begging for money. Before I could say jack, they pulled out my gold.

“I had to drive one way and follow them. Some people chased them. The only person that got close to them, they stabbed the person. They stabbed him and followed inside the bush.

“I had to follow that Ministry of Justice, the backside I was seeing them. I told the security men there, ‘Let us chase after these guys. They just robbed me of my gold. I will pay you anything.’ Those guys refused; they were looking at me like, ‘What am I saying?’

“I’m not going to fault them. I’m just making this video to create awareness. Abuja is no longer safe.”

The allegations have raised concerns about street-level security in the nation’s capital, particularly around busy recreational areas and major public roads.
