BREAKING: One Feared Dead, Many Injured As Fresh Violence Erupts In Apo, Abuja by Le124(m): 1:45pm On Oct 20, 2020 |
By Luminous Jannamike At least one person was killed and many others injured, on Tuesday, following a fresh #EndSARS outbreak of violence in Waru settlement, Apo District of Abuja. Properties worth millions of Naira were also destroyed in the civil disturbance that began at about 8:00 am. Some residents said trouble started as #EndSARS protesters were resuming their daily demonstrations against police brutality within the district. However, a combined team of soldiers and the police have moved to Waru, where a thick pillar of smoke billowed at about 11:15 am, to arrest the violence and restore peace in the area. The security agents have also barricaded some roads leading the epicentre of the attacks. Speaking with Vanguard, an eyewitness who preferred not to be named, said the man who died was warned against proceeding to Waru settlement Tuesday morning because hoodlums had reportedly laid an ambush for #EndSARS protesters in the area. We warned the man who was killed not to proceed into Waru. We watched from a distance how the hoodlums killed him. “They planked him in the head with a 2-by-2 wood, and as soon as he fell to the ground, they mobbed him to death. “The Army and police have moved into Waru to calm the situation, but I’m certain as soon as they leave the violence will start again,” he said. As a result of the tensed atmosphere in the area, the source added that many women and children have fled the area to safer districts. Meanwhile, many young men resident in Apo and its environs were seen moving about the streets with weapons of all sort for self-defence. The fresh attacks came barely 24 hours after hoodlums razed over 50 cars in a car mart and vandalized many valuables in the area amid the #EndSARS protests in the nation’s capital. Since October 6, some Nigerians began street protests for reform in the police. On multiple occasions, the protesters have been confronted by thugs while police officers have resorted to flogging or using teargas to disperse them.

I think its time for the youths to leave the streets. Gideon Okar's aborted coup did not succeed against IBB, but people in the said that coup changed the face of the Nigerian military till date. Prior to that coup attempt, people from other parts of the country were treated like slaves in military. Commands began to be held in Hausa. No non-Hausa held any responsible position. But after that attempted coup, the Hausas realized the deep resentment that had been built up against them. The youths have just staged an attempted coup and I believe those in power have gotten the message. From now on they will be more sensitive with their utterances and actions. Anyone takes this country for granted again, we set it ablaze and disintegrate if that's what it would be. 4 Likes |

Awol1: Hmm! You are right, I am really impressed with the gut of Abuja protesters, they have look the power that be in the eyes and didn't blink. Unfortunately, with this fracas Abuja will turn like kaduna-volatile, religious and ethnic mistrust amongst citizens and balkanisation of settlement patterns. |

Blankstare: Most of the fools causing mayhem in Abuja are Fulani touts who have just as much right as the Igbos and the Yorubas over Abuja. The aboriginal Abuja people might not even be making noise because they detest the Fulani just as everyone else do. |
