Hoodlums at Fadeyi in Lagos state have taken advantage of the tense situation surrounding the proposed labour strike to wreck havoc on Lagosians.
The hoodlums are reported to have created a blockade at the Fadeyi axis of the popular Ikorodu Express way.
It is not clear if the blockade was initially created by the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) which says it would embark on an indefinite strike over the federal government’s decision to increase the pump price of petrol from N86.50 to N145.
Those going to work, Wednesday, said hoodlums were hurling stones and other dangerous objects at vehicles.
They were smashing windscreens thereby forcing buses, cars, and other vehicles from turning back from the axis.
They also were not sparing BRT buses. One twitter user tweeted he “almost got hurt trying to jump off a BRT buses”
But it seems security personnel have taken control of the situation to quell the violence.
Please avoid that route for now please…
