Any nation and state without security control is doomed for anarchy, this is the real reason people are now living with untold fears and anxieties Aftermath #Endsars police protest recently experienced.
Lagosians
have appealed to authorities concern to come to their rescue as dare
devil armed hoodlums have in the past few days, placed Lagos State under
seige, overwhelming the police as they robbed and maimed residents with
reckless abadonment.
TheCaveat.info
can authoritatively report that during the past five days in questions,
no fewer than 25 criminal cases, ranging from attack on Bullion van to
vehicles snatching were witnessed by helpless residents and visitors who
now sleep with one eye open.
Investigations
by TheCaveat.info revealed that in Ajah and Lekki axis of the state, no
fewer than six major crimes such as the attack on a Bullion van
around Benco supermarket, clashes between rival cult groups were
recorded in the state.
In
Ajegunle area of Ketu - Mile 12, at least, efforts of the police in
this placed yeilded fruits as attempts by hoodlums to breach peace on
three occasions during the days were nipped in the bud by the police led
by the Divisional Police Officer, DPO, Mr Emmanuel Adeeuyi.
While
Adewuyi efforts paid up , the police in Mushin and Fagba in Iju are
having hectic time as no fewer than 20 vehicles, 15 shops were either
robbed or vandalized.
Commenting
on the development, an Egbeda based resident, Mr Samson Ojo said Police
are Now helpless because the psyche and morale of the average
policeman in the state have been traumatized.
He
said this is following last month invasion of police stations in the
state by hoodlums who hijacked the #EndSARS peaceful protest in the
state and other states in the country.
"A
good number of policemen in Lagos have actually not come out of their
hidings after that sordid encounter with the bad boys" said a resident.
It
would be recalled that no fewer than six persons including policemen
were killed by hoodlums who destroyed 15 police stations in the hijacked

Pleasure, Ile - Epo, U-- Turn and Abule - Egba now live in fear as " no
one knows who would be next victim".

Superitendent of Police, SP, did not reply a message sent to his
