It had been written, predicted that a day like this would come. A day when robberies would become a norm because Nigeria has now descended into a shadow, a beast of itself.
I have heard that these so-called beasts of no-nations have become some brazen in some parts of Lagos, wielding a cutlass and scary-looking weapons to hound people for scarps of tiny change. In Ayobo, allegedly, I heard how these heartless hoodlums broke into shops without pity and made way with goods- that wasn't theirs.

The reality is right here in our face. Our worst fears are beginning to manifest. This #Lockdown would bring about an increase in crime. Hoodlums would capitalize. #OgunUnrest is a testament to this fact. @PoliceNG need to do more to protect the people while we #StayHome

Never been this scared. Everyone is outside vigilant, but the truth is if these boys invade, we have nothing to protect ourselves.#OgunUnrest pic.twitter.com/s5vZOclTUb

“4 persons reportedly died today at ADIYAN due to the robberies going on (2 residents and 2 thieves).”

The residents had to fight the robbers themselves!!! It’s not enough for the Police to pass with siren, they need to be deployed in those areas or more will die ????#OgunUnrest
UPDATE; so the police came through and after a few gunfire everywhere seems calm here. #OgunUnrest https://t.co/Y1qKPX0Hxz

I just received series of armed robbery reports in several parts of Ogun state. At a time like this, security of lives & properties should be the least of the problem.

I heard some arrests were made yesterday but @PoliceNG need to beef up security. @dabiodunMFR
