RE: Narrowly Escaping The Onslaught Of A Botched Robbery
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
Once someone travels out and comes back successfully, evil eyes and minds follow suit. The fact that the robbers didn't see the main person they had come for, made them to be very violent with the family members.
I must say, it was smart of the family member who tried to escape but then again, that was a very big risk.
That was not a funny experience at all, one that can never be forgotten.

As Nigerians, we need to change our notion about individuals who have lived abroad and return home thereafter as being rich, as this is not often the case. This attitude is what makes some of us, particularly those with bad intentions, aim at extorting such individuals. Experience has shown that some of these returnees are not as affluent as most of us assume them to be.
Regarding the action of our neighbour's relative who tried to escape during the robbery attack, I believe he made that attempt because he realised that there was an opportunity to seek help that may lead to the rescue of his family. Regardless of the risk, I think he achieved that after alerting everyone about the presence of the robbers.
Like you said, the experience was not a pleasant one, especially for me, who before the incident, had never faced such a life-threatening situation.
Thank you for reading, Nkem.
