Man recounts how his mother trapped armed robbers who tried to break into their house

A Twitter user narrated how his “gangster” mother allegedly protected them when armed robbers tried to break into their home.

According to him, his mother was pregnant at that time and his father was offshore working. Explaining how the robbers came to their neighbourhood, the young man said the suspects robbed house to house and had killed his neighbour.

But before they could get to their house, his mother set a trap for them using naked wires from a long extension plug then tied the direct wires to the window before plugging the socket back to the light source.

He revealed that 5 armed robbers were electrocuted while trying to come in from the window.

The story has gone viral and led to a debate on the social media platform. Check out some of the reactions below.
