Properties › Re: Fire At NNPC Petrol Station, College Road, Ogba (Pictures) by johnjohnson(m): 2:39pm On Apr 27, 2020 |
ignis: Nigeria is more of a reactive country than a proactive country.
What is NNPC petrol station doing very close to Residential and Commercial buildings ?
Secondly, A 3 digit or unique phone number of police and fire service should be at the finger tip of every Nigerians incase of emergency like this. In the states the number is 911.... In Nigeria what is the number ? If telecommunication companies can have such customer care numbers like 111, 180, 121 etc, why can't the security agencies have it?
15 minutes after the fire incidence started, people were busy forwarding broadcast on WhatsApp and other social media, even the op created the thread calling for attention of fire service.
We need to re strategise and get it right for once. My brother, I've also said the same thing so many times. We still have a long way to go as a country |

Crime › Re: My Experience With The Hoodlums Terrorising Igando. by johnjohnson(m): 1:36pm On Apr 14, 2020 |
kings59: What are you even saying
An okada man gave you residents an insight, and you are here saying trash. When the tyre was burning, the thieves might have seen the flames going up, which was a very bad idea for them, plus the chanting by the youths.
You should be happy that people were outside protecting you that was inside.
I wonder what would have happened if no one came out in masses. May be by now, you would have been accusing Buhari
Some people no just dey reason. Don't even talk this outside.
Remember they rape women, steal, loot shops. Can you stand looking at one of them raping someone in your compound?
Even if it was a rumour, it is better residents regimented in masses, than being indoor and be robbed.
I graduated at eastern university. I had faced 10 robbers with guns, cutlasses, and charm. All tenants came out and were breaking bottles, sharpening cutlasses, using threatening words on the robbers banging at our gate. Our girls hailed us the next morning and said we are real men. I'm surprised you said you're a graduate. It's people like you that cause unnecessary distraction, the bike man raised a false alarm out of fear, the robbers were no where in sight in the area. It even gave chance to more evil vices. Look I'm not saying they are robbing people in some parts of lagos but don't let the issue of fake/false alarm cause more dangers. |
Crime › Re: My Experience With The Hoodlums Terrorising Igando. by johnjohnson(m): 9:01am On Apr 14, 2020 |
Enquires: At about 7:50pm shortly after Buhari announced the extension of the lockdown, I and my neighbours gather around a shop in front of the house to discuss the way forward, wail, and give opinions about what the president just said.
During the course of our discussion, the issue of boys terrorising lagos came up and as expected, they were reactions from everyone. Some are of the opinion that this is not as a result of hunger but just an excuse for these hoodlums to perpetrate their evil act. Jokes were flying around (our usual practice of suffering and smiling), people giving out safety tips and all, talks on how to get a cutlass for protection etc.
In the middle of this talk, a young lady came in to buy foodstuffs from the shop and overheard our discussion. She then decided to make her own contribution of how she just survived an alleged attack by some of these boys, how she scrambled for safety some few hours ago, how many were killed including a pregnant woman( at this juncture, i know all what she said were all lies). She went on and on and i could sense that fear were being created among the listener. I was angry, furious and I began to tell as many people around me not to entertain fear but be calm. Meanwhile, just as I'm talking, one of the women in the discussion claim she saw boys moving in, and this is where it all begins.
Come and see how people were running helter-skelter, some of the people that were initially boasting how fearless they are, ran like children to take cover. Panics began to set in and just like a wild fire, i witness how it spread throughout the whole street. Shops that were open, close in a twinkle of an eye without seeing the enemy in sight. In the midst of this, I was still angry. Angry, because, it was clear to me this is just another false alarm. The next thing i know, the youths gather in their numbers with cutlasses, knives, sticks chanting as one going to battle. Tyres were burnt in every junction accompany with shouts. Different weapons were brought out from boys ranging from age 12. And the peaceful atmosphere in no time, turned to a violent one. I witness first hand how people can be mistaken for robbers and be burnt alive cause, every okada rider that came into the street was virtually mobbed, innocent residents were accosted, and if not provided useful evidence was asked to sit on the floor.
I switched on my data and the next message i got were from friends, telling me how Igando is on fire, How they have being coordinated attacks within igando, how robbers have invaded Igando and killed many. I was stunned upon seeing this. Logged on to twitter and it's already trending and I'm like, is it this same Igando or another one? Is it the fire we started by ourselves? or is it not the boys that came out with their weapons to attack an unseen army?
My point is, we should stop creating unnecessary fear among ourselves. Let's stop spreading fake news, it help no one. If i should upload the "deadly" pictures and videos i took, its as if we are in a war front, imagine i post it on twitter or facebook, People who are far away would think these are the criminals not knowing they are just residents trying to protect themselves. It later dawned on me that majority of the videos circulating online were that of the residents not the hoodlums. And for the arrest that were made, assuming the policemen visited this street, almost everyone would be arrested as they were all with one deadly weapon or the other. At around 3am, I was woken up with what sounded like gun shots but unknown to me it was the young boys that visibly got angry that were banging gates of every house shouting that everybody should come out, that nobody deserve sleep since they too are not sleeping.
I'm not saying these cultist don't exist or do not attack communities. What I'm saying is, we should stop the spread of fake news, let's report it the way it is.
I appreciate every one who came out yesterday to keep watch till this morning in a bid to try to protect their communities. You guys are the best! God keep us all!! My brother thank you for this piece. The same thing happened in okeira, Ogba. One okada rider just drove inside the street and started shouting they are coming!!!. People just started running up and down without seeing thing, immediately almost all youths started coming out with cutlasses and it became an avenue for cultists to start their normal chanting. In the midnight there was virtually tyres burning in the front of every street. Please we should be careful on the type of news we share |
