The viral videos from Mazamaza appeared to have inspired people to go in search of similar warehouses in other states like Adamawa, Plateau, Kaduna, Osun, Cross River, and Ondo.
Many Nigerians are only struggling to scrape together some money to survive day after day and upward social mobility is difficult for many. Unsurprisingly even after the government made concessions, including scrapping the notorious SARS unit and setting up probe panels across the states, street demonstrations continued and many tried to expand the demands to include an end to bad governance.Amid deepening hunger, finding a warehouse in Lagos where the government kept food items was a trigger for looting and mob attacks.
Residents told PREMIUM TIMES that the Agro Mall was invaded after the looters had broken and pillaged the COVID-19 palliative warehouse at the Ilorin airport Then around 7 p.m on Friday, the resident said, the looters invaded Shoprite and emptied it overnight despite the imposition of curfew by the state government. “They were at Shoprite till around 7 AM on Saturday and neighbouring houses and shops were also looted,” the resident said.
Similarly, in Osun State, items, including motorcycles, sewing machines, fertilizer, power generating sets, grinding machines and freezers, were stolen from a store maintained by Osun Central senator, Ajibola Basiru. The city was “free for all,” a journalist on the ground, Jonathan Agban-ughal, told PREMIUM TIMES on Saturday. The hoodlums looted and then destroyed the houses of Geshom Bassey, a senator; and Victor Ndoma-Egba, former senator and NDDC chairman; Bassey Henshaw, a senator.”
The state governor, Simon Lalong, was forced to re-impose a curfew and said lives had been lost to the violence.
