Residents of some communities in Ogun and Lagos have lost sleep over robberies in the neighbourhoods by a gang of roaming hoodlums seizing the coronavirus lockdown to unleash terror on the two states.
There have been overwhelming complaints by residents of Owode, Ilepa, Ifo, Arigbajo, Itori, Dalemo, Ijoko, Ogba Ayo, Mosa, Joju, Sango, Ota, Oniyale among other communities in Ifo and Ado-Odo Ota local government areas of Ogun State over how hoodlums have been dispossessing them of their valuables day and night.
There was also unrest in FESTAC Town, Jankara and Ifako-Ijaiye areas of Lagos State on Saturday afternoon as hoodlums besieged the populated areas to rob residents and loot shops.

A report from the Nigerian Police says the claims by residents are false. They even went further to grant interviews to Aljazeera and BBC on this. They claimed that the cases were false alarms.
However, knowing Lagos, I can tell you that there must have been cases of robberies all around. Perhaps not in the scale and manner a lot of the residents have painted it.
We also got information that the 1 Million Boys gang after attempting to invade Gbagada and Oworonshoki communities, moved their focus to Ogudu-Ojota Axis.
Well we are waiting for them and hoping that they do try it. As I have informed all my neighbors- that we drive cars and live in apartments does not imply that we are timid or do not know how to unleash hate and violence on anyone who tries to harm our loved ones at home.
