There is pandemonium in Fagba area of Lagos State as the environs have been besieged with what appeared to be a tribal war between Hausa people and the Yorubas.
Trouble we gathered started on Tuesday, October 20th, 2020 when protesters of the end police brutality and #EndSARS, seemingly thugs laid barricade on the road, thereby obstructing passage of vehicles.
Sources disclosed to us that things took a twist when a truck bringing in cows from the North was set ablaze by the thugs because the driver of the vehicle failed to comply.
Sources squealed to us that this action angered the Hausas who on the other hand retaliated, leading to a free for all fight which resulted to lose of lives and several properties destroyed.
Be that as it may, residents of Fagba and the environs are at the moment scampering for safety as many have now deserted their homes for fear of losing their lives. Some of the residents squealed to us that the Hausas have been attacking the residents and burning down properties belonging to the Yorubas and Igbos.
Videos available to us revealed how properties worth billions of Naira were reportedly burnt down by the Hausas including banks and petrol station, cars belonging to the residents were not also spared.
Meanwhile, Twitter has been on fire with the Fagba mayhem as many have taken to the platform to appeal to the state governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu to come to their aide as the area has been engulfed in flames of fire.
