 Residents of Obaranje area in Ikotun Lagos have cried out for help over the continuous robbery attacks and rape by unidentified men. The Wanda state government to deploy security personnel to the area as they have not been sleeping with their eyes closed. Our correspondent Emmanuel Oloboku reports. In this very community site you can see these very police where I'm standing is area where some sets of you know if you like called them hoodlums or neutrons were actually took that time in a crossing avoc to these very police where they actually end up killing one person one security guard and injured another. There is probable fear and as close to the news arrives the community. Residents say they have been the continuous targets of robbery and rape. It was around three a.m. to four that all those boys numbering about over 20 they came to this Akindayo street and then ideally they have a night guard but immediately the night guard saw them he called for reinforcement I mean for other night guard to help but along the line they discovered that all those boys are many with cutlass hammer mentioned a lot of dangerous weapons. These women's husbands survive death by the whiskers in one of the recent attacks. We are not safe if we have security we are not safe because they keep the security man so we are not safe so I don't know what to say just for me to thank my god that I'm still alive and my husband is still alive. We are told that residents decided to be part of the voluntary vigilante to ward off the criminals however these women's husbands were skewed on one of the watch nights. The incident happened very early in the morning when someone came to call me telling me that the hoodlums went around immediately I called my husband's phone but could not reach him. I then stood and went looking for him but after some time I came back home and at daybreak I was told by my neighbor that my husband was dead of which I refused bluntly and those that were there told me that he was macheted but in all what has happened has happened. From the group vine the robbery attacks yeah I've been going on since COVID-19 locked down in 2020 by an unidentified group called one million boys. This was happening around 5, 5, 5, 5, 3, 3, 30. By then the shaman has called there the police station so before the police came here so by the time they came you know you know they just when I woke up I just saw people around you know what's happening what's happening so same people now you know I discovered that you know this was happening that one of our scourge was killed. The day it happened it happened around 2 a.m and I had gunshots. I thought it was the vigilantes but not long after they came to our home trying to force their way in which they even tried to succeed and they drew their guns and matchets towards us demanding we give them what we have like money and forms and the money they collected from us was 60,000 Naira. Every government pledges to secure the lives and property of each people what as it is the pledge easier to have much impact on Abarangé. The residents want and immediate deployment of the police to the area. From Abarangé in Lagos, Emmanuel Olubo Boquum. Plot Stéphaneos.
