Some irate Hausa youths in Lagos state have set the Area Office of Apapa-Iganmu Local Council Development Area ablaze.

The Hausa youths who're majorly motorcycle riders (Okada Riders) within the council stormed the LG area office of the council, located at Marine Beach, Lagos, on Thursday, 9th January, 2020, to protest the seizure of their colleagues ‘Okadas’ by some council officials over non payment of ‘riders permit’.

According to reliable sources, the ugly incident which occurred at about 5pm on Thursday saw the Hausa ‘Okada’ riders in large numbers, on their ‘Okadas’ bombarding the area office of the council, throwing bottles and forcefully opened the gate to unleash attack on the council officials.

While they were trying to force the gate open, the council officials who had seen danger staring them in the face took to their heels, and escaped through the fence.

After gaining entrance into the compound which also houses a primary school building, the rampaging Hausa ‘Okada riders’ vandalized properties worth millions of naira, destroyed parked vehicles, took away the seized ‘Okadas’, carted away some sewing machines used for vocational training and set the office ablaze.

It, however, took the timely intervention of the members of the Federal Fire Service to arrest the situation, they prevented the fire from wrecking more havoc.

Many States has banned Okada in the Northern part of the country because its goes side by side with crisis and crime, disobedience to the authority and so many more.. the moment the plateau state government banned the operation of Okada because of the high inflow of chadians , Nigeriens and Malians and escaped boko harams who are hiding under the guise, gbam!! these people started throwing their okadas in the next available trailers coming to Lagos, mostly illegal immigrant and escaped boko haram elements.


A WHOLE LOCAL GOVERNMENT OFFICE BURNT ? just like that?

these miscreant just set it on fire just like that and the police couldnt do anything? just because they were hausa or what? this is why Okada was banned in Plateau state, and Lagos state government are habouring these people until they overpowered a whole Local government, why not ban Okada so these people stop flowing in to cause whahala!

the seriki in that area probably ordered this attack

violence is never the way forward, i rest my case

Where dem stupid be say na their money dem go still take replace sewing machines and broken wind shields. If 1mb of sense dey their head them for know say them go task dem die this time. Why burn and vandalise.

If I say some northerners no get sense now e go be like say I dey tribalistic.
It is well
Fear north

No one will be atrested or taken to courts or go to jail over this. Why? The word Hausa has been used.
Tell my why such violence and destruction wont continue every now and again.
State police cant work. FG needs to sit down and organize, train and equip the police for better service.

Thumbs up for the real owners of the contraption. No police to confront them and a whole local government council staff all took to their heels in Lagos for that matter. Una weldone

The ONLY civilized pple in Nigeria are the Yorubas!

na only the northerners the ride back for Lagos? All bike riders of every tribe will be made to suffer the consequences of this act.

they should be arrested and prosecuted , there is no room for lawlessness in Lagos state

chai

no respect for government? this is cracy

Sibling fight. They will settle!

Fashola remains the best governor of Lagos. Standing ovation to him for eradicating bike menace on Lagos roads.

Sanwo Olu should do the same. We have Gokada, Opay, Max and Keke napep enough to cater Lagos populace.

Seriously?




Is it true?



Who's gonna corroborate this story?

Tinubu will settle the matter because of his 2023 presidential ambition that he will never achieve

Conquered territory, nothing to fret about..

Just watch as Yorubas will tactically ignore the culprits of these acts and rope in the Igbos here; just watch. I dont know what they are scared of - in the hausas
