Soldiers, touts clash in Lagos

As tanker crushes motorcyclist

Pandemonium broke out yesterday at Second  Rainbow, on the Oshodi\Apapa expressway, Lagos, after some men suspected to be soldiers attacked some touts who inflicted injury on one of their colleagues.

This is just as a tanker loaded with petroleum products rammed into a commercial motorcyclist at Alaba bus stop on the same expressway, in the driver’s bid to avoid being extorted by touts.

There were different accounts as to how the trouble started between the soldier and the touts. A version of the account said the soldier was escorting a truck which was stopped by some touts on an extortion spree.

The soldier reportedly refused and was dragged out of the truck and gang beaten.

Another version of the account said  the  soldier in murfti was in a commercial bus heading towards Cele, when some touts popularly called agbero clustered round the vehicle, demanding for money.

He was said to have ordered the touts to leave the vehicle. When they refused, he reportedly  alighted from the bus to shove one of the touts away, only to be gang beaten by over ten touts.

One hour later, the injured soldier returned with his colleagues who descended on any tout in sight. They were still unleashing mayhem on the touts at 8pm.

Tanker crushes okada

Meanwhile , tragedy struck the same day on the same expressway  when a tanker laden with  33,000 litre of Premium Motor Spirit, PMS, otherwise called petrol, overturned, crushing a commercial motorcyclist to death.

Eyewitness said  the incident happened  about 6.45 pm , as driver of the truck tried to evade being extorted by touts

The impact led to the tanker overturning and spilled its content in the process.

The deceased whose identity could not be determined as of press time was later recovered and taken to the mortuary.

Permanent Secretary, of Lagos State Emergency Management Agency, LASEMA, Dr.Femi Oke-Osanyitolu, said upon receipt of the report, the agency promptly dispatched a rescue team to the scene for the recovery operation.

According to Oke-Osanyitolu, “The agency responded to an incident at the above location in which a fuel-laden tanker overturned due to a collision between the tanker and a motorcycle.

“Unfortunately, the motorcycle rider was crushed to death underneath the tanker and its contents are spilling onto the road rendering the scene extremely hazardous to other motorists and passersby. Meanwhile, the agency worked in collaboration with men of the Lagos Fire and Rescue Service, Lagos State Traffic Management Authority, LASTMA, Lagos Neighborhood Safety Corps, LNSC and the  Nigeria Police to secure the scene and carry out secondary incident containment measures while heavy duty equipment by LASEMA had been dispatched to remove from the road.

“Residents are urged to avoid any naked flame until the incident is contained,” Oke-Osanyitolu stated.

Security is all we need.
This man below will ensure we all are safe and secured in our homes and offices

FG and Tinubu clashed in Lagos State.

Agbero, the legacy of Tinubu.

The same Tinubu that wants to eradicate Almajiri from the north but isn't saying anything about the Agbero he founded.

Chief Founder of Agberos.

Agberos are the real owners of lagos

I hope the agberos were given enough beatings. Those guys are menace in Lagos parks. Werey people would be dictating the fares to the drivers as if they know much about the passengers' pockets.

Tinubu urchins clashes with repentant boko haram

Tinubu children

Crazy agberos, when time reach all of them go kawai

Breakfast minus Quakers Oats and Golden Morn for Eboes of Afghaneastern. Watch how they'll be blind to the HORRORS presently haunting their red-earth enclave and kill themselves over Yoruba matter.

Not Surprise

The touts gan, their own don too much

Soldiers should deal with them mercilessly.

Thïefnubu touts have been constituting nuisance in Lagos.

Touts and Agbero has turn Lagos into something else especially that part of Lagos. Any trailer they see on sight they must collect money.
Remember something similar happened around Festac first gate last year

Eku Clashing o..

Wait until Tinubu becomes president then Touts will be more powerful than the military men just like we are facing Fulani herdsmen cases

Even soldiers fear touts in Lagos now

The only Legacy of Tinubu he wants to Nationalise..

No be today.

Touts, in several parts of the country, especially Lagos, are the 4th realm of government, usurping the press.

They are a product of a failed judicial system. They bend legislation -or create theirs- and oversee executive functions by employing physically strength, intimidation and the 'intelligence of the street.
