Like the popular saying, 99 days for the thief, one day for the owner, this best describes what happened to a young boy caught trying to shoplift at a supermarket in Lagos state.
In a previous report by Legit.ng, Facebook user, Segun Availeth Oyedele, broke the news via the platform and shared photos of the alleged thief.
In his caption, he narrated how the young man in question visited the supermarket as a customer. Although he didn't buy anything, the attendant's interest was piqued when he noticed the supposed customer's waistline grew thicker after he got into the supermarket.
