Residents of Akure, Ondo state capital, on Monday, engaged in widespread looting of food items and grains conveyed by a truck into the state, Peoples Gazette can report.

The truck was overpowered after it developed a mechanical fault at one of the popular junctions known as the cultural centre along the Ondo express road.

The Gazette learnt that the fully loaded truck was conveying food items in the cartoons branded in President Bola Tinubu’s name.

Several witnesses who confirmed the development said those who attacked the truck and also looted its contents included petty traders, artisans, drivers and commercial motorcyclists.

“How they got to know the content still surprised me. The truck developed a mechanical fault and before we knew it the residents forced it open.

“They began to bring out the items in the pack which are mostly grains like rice and garri branded in President Tinubu’s blue colour, name and logo,” a witness said.

However, remnants of the food items were observed on the roadside in footage circulated on Monday night.

A social commentator, Ibidapo Adelusi, immediately condemned the action of the residents, saying the police should go after the perpetrators.

“We know there’s hunger and hardship in the land but this is a crime against fellow humans. The police should not hesitate to fish out these thieves,” Mr Adelusi said.

The spokesperson for the police in Ondo, Funmilayo Odunlami-Omisanya, could not be immediately reached for comments when contacted by The Gazette.

A message seeking reaction was yet to be delivered as of the time of filing in this report.

Ebi pa wa oooo

If those rice are branded, it's not looting.
They only get their share of the government loots

This administration will favor me and my family.

Nigerian Politicians are the most wicked set of humans in this world.
It's possible this food items are palliative meant for the hungry but it would found its way to a private warehouse where I twill be used for campaign purposes.

Government of lies and propaganda intentionally keeping people poor so they can take advantage of the vulnerability of starving Nigerians during elections

Tinubulation is not good

Because it's all about " grab it, fight for it snatching it and runaway with it "...

They are just good copycat of their Oga at the top

Na wa o

Hunger dey outside

Hunger is not a respectable thing

This looting is happening and we are all laughing as if it's a joke.

One day, they will start attacking individuals who went to market to buy food for his household. They will go into market and loot shops belonging to individuals that sells food.

This is not a laughing matter, if govt can't act fast, it will be too late to control the mobs.

LoL, God have mercy, it is getting serious.

But why is it always people from the president's side that do feel the effect of the president's maladministration most?

Check the past presidents and you will understand.

To transport goods in trailer now na risky action.

Just one state out of all the state that start with letter O. Still expecting other letter O state to follow suit

Hunger dey tidy our western brothers

Palliative

..where were they taking the food items too

They come online to praise Tinubu due to tribalism but go offline to loot moving trailer due to ebin pawa

Even in birthday parties, and other gatherings Nigerians have always rushed food. It's not new. This tradition has been so long ago.

This hunger seems worst in Southwest oo

There is a saying that, a hungry man is an angry man, that is exactly what is playing out, people are trying to feed their families and they are beginning to go to the extreme to do so.
I don't condone stealing in whatever form but the government needs to do something about the cost of food items

Your father and his Northern Twins has thrown Nigerians into Hunger

When there's hunger, unemployment and lack of infrastructural development, there will be chaos and lawlessness, That's the case in Nigeria

SW is the most hungry part of the country as at today

Nothing concern me but E dey mind


Too much hunger in the SW

Ole gbe, ole gba...
Thief carry ham out, thief collect ham

The result of voting based on tribal and religious sentiments

Hmmmmm!

THIS PEOPLE SHOULD BEHAVE LIKE PEOPLE WHO THEIR BROTHER IS THE PRESIDENT FOR ONCE.

PLEASE YORUBAS SHOULD STOP DISGRACING TINUBU.


NA BEG I DEY BEG THEM.
