According to an eye witness account, trouble started in the early hours of Tuesday 20th October 2020 when a group of #ENDSARS protesters who were mostly Yorubas blocked the major ring road at Fagba junction in Iju-Ishaga area of Lagos, making movement of vehicles impossible. A fleet of about five trucks were stuck in the traffic, including a truck owned by the Hausas which was conveying cattle to Abbattoir.

After much pleading by the Hausas to let their truck pass, since some of the cows were on the verge of dying, the protesters refused to let them pass. Reports said the Hausa butchers even offered them one of their cows, as well as cash gifts to appease them, which they collected but still denied them passage.

Trouble was let loose when one of the sick cows died after a delay of over six hours. This provoked the Hausa butchers. Insults and name callings soon deescalated into fight which took about five lives on the spot, and saw about six trailers carrying salt, flour, and PMS products torched.

The fight did not end there as reprisal attacks have seen more lives claimed along the Fagba axis, as well as houses, shops etc. either vandalized or completely razed by fire. As at the morning of 22nd October, some dead bodies still litter the streets of the area, while hoodlums are still attacking people and plundering shops.

All the Hausas living around the area are currently in hiding while their shops are being plundered, same also with the shops of other non-Hausa residents.

No security operatives have been seen at sight, nor is anyone doing anything to rescue the situation.

Below are some pictures and videos of the events.

Hope they won't say it's photoshop

OP, you are wasting your time. Change the title to "Igbo kills fly in yaribaland" and see them rush enter. They are using Igbo to distract Yaribas while they carry out their agenda. Yoruba ronu!

Why are they butchering sick cows for meat market and consumption? Is that sickness not going to end up in human body?

Yaribanza just like causing unnecessary trouble .

Buhari will now unleash his own thugs to attack Southerners in the north including Abuja.

Every time these yaribanzas start their foolishness the north will reprociacte in kind on innocent people in the north .
.
I think it's fair to say Nigeria is on her last legs.

Cows don't like standing in one place as it affects their circulatory system. This is like you sitting down in a cramped sit for over 24hrs.

Couple that with dehydration and the cow can easily die.

Why does touts refused to let them pass despite collecting both a cow and money from them ?

Now they have gone attacking the Hausa traders for no reason whatsoever.

Lagos must be purged of this yaribanzas

Nigeria has no policemen. We only have corrupt boys scouts.

Igbos and Yorubas, please don't allow the online trolls hired by politicians to divide our new found unity.

Waiting for a counter before I share to Facebook friends.
