WARNING: This episode contains description of violence and death which some people may find distressing.

鈥淭here could have been a dissenting voice saying no, no, no 鈥� don鈥檛 do that. Nigeria is a place where people don鈥檛 seem to have value for human life鈥�.

Ten years ago, the deaths of four young men 鈥� who became known as the 鈥楢luu 4鈥� 鈥� shocked Nigeria, after they were viewed by thousands of people on a viral video.

The men, in their late teens and early twenties, had been falsely accused of theft. After a mock trial they were brutally beaten and killed.

The families of the men have been speaking to the 大象传媒 about their memories of that time 鈥� and their subsequent fight for justice.

Despite mass calls for change at the time of the deaths, ten years on similar killings are still taking place - with more than 200 such deaths in the last three years.

So can anything be done to change the culture?
