This topic should be 20 most dangerous places that needs police and military protection, so as to call on the government to do something about it. Remember, human beings are still living there and they can't run and leave their homes. The place is for humans and not miscreants.

Why is Estate topping the list??

Estate is mainly known for snatching of phones and valuables from buses by these hoodlums from the bushes.

Its not as bad as the Ajegunle and Badagry areas na angry

Oshodi Oke Bridge: Oshodi Oke ‘boys’ are notorious for bag snatching, pickpocketing and mugging during rush hours

Was pickpocketed here some years back phone disappeared just like magic. First and last time it will happen. Now I always cover my pockets with my shirt and make sure everything is intact once is board or alight from any bus
