AN unidentified man alleged to be an Okada thief was on Friday morning burnt to death at the Mile 110 roundabout end of the MKO Abiola Way, Ring-Road, Ibadan.

An eyewitness told TribuneOnline correspondent who was at the scene of the incident that the alleged motorcycle thief was chased from an unknown location where he was said to have stolen a motorcycle to the spot.

The eyewitness further disclosed that the said motorcycle was retrieved from him before he was eventually set ablaze by the mob at the scene.
