In reaction to the extension of the lockdown which was announced on the 11th of April by the Federal Government to further manage the Coronavirus outbreak, some irresponsible youths have decided to seize the opportunity to cause terror in some neighborhoods situated in Lagos.

According to a post shared by Twitter user, Danny Walter on the microblogging and social networking platform, the affected areas are; Alagbado, Agbado, ijaiye, Abule Egba, Agege, Ogba, Akute, Ota, Sango.

He also revealed that the residents in some of the above neighborhoods turned to Vigilante to secure the area as all attempts to get help from Lagos Police proved abortive.

Aproko Doctor on twitter also gave his own report of the situation saying;


"Areas around Abule-Egba were robbed today in broad day light. Shops looted, armed robbers on the prowl.

We had to close the hospital gates for fear of being harmed also.
People have reached breaking point. Its between a virus and increasing crime."....

There is an ongoing argument that tries to justify the actions of the robbers, claiming the extension of the lockdown pushed them to the act as they are trying to survive.
