The former VP condemned the act via his Twitter account, @atiku.

He wrote, “That jungle justice still exists is an indictment of our justice system. We must work harder to deepen confidence in our justice system.

“I’m saddened by the stories of lynching from different parts of Nigeria. Irrespective of age or alleged crime, we have to be more tolerant.”
