Contest: Theft, Theft or Loss?
Are you going to tell us what that experience was like if you experienced a robbery, theft, or loss?
My robbery experience was not funny at all, it was a sad experience in my life which happened around 2 am when people were sleep enjoying themselves. Around 2 am in my compound, I started hearing my neighbor screaming for help I thought her daughter was very ill not knowing that it was armed robbers that had entered our compound. The next thing I heard was if you shout again we are going to kill you, so quickly got up from the bed and tried to run from the window which was impossible for me because of the protectors.
The next thing I heard was how the armed robbers were breaking my door to enter my house which I and my friends were inside the house. They succeeded in destroying my two doors completely and got access to my room where they threatened to kill us if we didn't comply with them. We couldn't do anything other than to allow them to carry what they wanted and leave.
How did it happen?
It happens when people are asleep when armed robbers jump through the fence in my compound. No one knows how they pass through despite how high the fence is they still find their way into the compound where I was staying and still broke into my house and that of my neighbors and robbed us of our phones, computers, and money.
The thieves broke our doors using matched, guns,s and other tools to have their way into my room and that of my neighbors at night. They were about 15 in number who were going about robbing the neighborhood.
Was what you lost valuable?
YES, what I lost is valuable which was my iPhone 8. The iPhone 8 was the latest and losing it was a big loss for me. Besides the phone, I lost so many contacts in my list that to date I haven't fully recovered the contact that Ilosts.
Was it difficult to recover?
Yes, it was difficult to recover as it took me, some months before I was able to buy another iPhone which is the current iPhone 13 that I am using.
What measures did you take to prevent it from happening again? Do you think you could have prevented it?
The measures that I take to prevent it from happening was locking my doors with extra keys and calling on vigilantes which I unfortunately I couldn't reach out to the vigilantes in my neighbourhood. Despite my shouting and how well I locked my doors they still came and broke the doors and find their way into my house.
I am inviting my friends; @dave-hanny, @ruthjoe, and @vickyson to also join me.

WOW amiga, su historia es bastante aterradora, era prácticamente una banda de ladrones bien decididos a robar sin importar que fueran vistos.
Debieron ser momentos bastante difíciles y con el temor de ser agredidos físicamente. menos mal no se resistieron al robo, porque usted pudo volver a comprar un nuevo equipo celular y mejorar la versión.
