Two armed robbers, Kayode
Oduto and Quadri Lateef,
got more than they bargained for when they decided to attack the home of a
Lagos housewife, who got furious at their effrontery and doused them with hot
water, leading to their arrest and are now in the custody of the Special Anti-Robbery
Squad(SARS), Ikeja.
The woman, who live with
her family at the Kollington area of Alagbado on the outskirts of Lagos,
according to police reports, was boiling water to make 'Poundo Yam' for her
family when the dare-devils struck, demanding for money and gold.
As they were
busy ransacking the apartment, the woman sneaked into her kitchen and came back
with the boiling water which she poured on Oduto while her husband seized the
opportunity to disarm him of his gun and pinned him down. Lateef sensing they
were in danger, took to his heels but the woman and her husband's screams
alerted other residents who gave him a hot ursuit and apprehended him.
Apart from pouring the
scalding water on Oduto, the woman also used the pot to hit his face
repeatedly, smashing it beyond recognition.
That is good
