A member of the vigilante, Usman Dantala, said the incident happened on Saturday around 2:12 pm when the two friends lured the girl into one of their friends’ room and gang raped her.
He said the two friends, who are commercial cyclists, invited the Fulani girl to sell nunu for them at one of their friends’ houses and lured her into the room and gang raped her.
He said it was a neighbour, who raised an alarm after he overheard some strange noise from the room through his window and became suspicious.
He said, “The neighbour quickly rushed to alert others, who rushed to the room and saw the Fulani girl crying half naked, while one of the boys managed to escape.”
He said the vigilantes came to arrest the other suspect, who took them to a joint where the other accomplice was also arrested.
