This incident is one of a series of hunger demonstrations by Nigeria since the removal of petrol subsidy and the floating of the naira by President Bola Tinubu’s administration. At least one person was reportedly killed on Sunday when residents of Birnin Kebbi, Kebbi State capital, northwest Nigeria looted food items stored at various warehouses owned by the government and private bodies. In a video seen on social media by SaharaReporters, the residents in their large numbers were captured looting a big truck filled with food items in the Bayan Kara area of the state. This incident is one of a series of hunger demonstrations by Nigeria since the removal of petrol subsidy and the floating of the naira by President Bola Tinubu’s administration. A source privy to the incident who spoke to The PUNCH newspaper confirmed that one of the residents was killed by military personnel deployed to stop the looting on Sunday. The source added that the deceased was rushed to the Federal Medical Centre in the state capital but was later declared dead by authorities at the hospital. The source said, “Some of the soldiers drafted to protect the centre where residents looted foodstuffs on Saturday night went to a nearby shop to confront the shop owners. “The soldiers, numbering three, engaged the shop owners in a fight, and one of them suddenly attacked the owner of the shop, mistaking him for being involved in the looting. “He engaged one of the shop owners in a fight and, in the process, shot him in the chest.” “We immediately rushed him to the Federal Medical Centre for medical attention, but unfortunately, he was confirmed dead on arrival at the hospital,” the source added Efforts to reach the spokesperson for the state police command, DSP Nafiu Abubakar, failed as he did not answer calls from SaharaReporters. https://saharareporters.com/2024/04/01/one-reportedly-killed-kebbi-residents-loot-public-private-warehouses-amid-hunger |

That's bad. Bulaba is increasing the hardship being faced by Nigerians, see as innocent people are being trampled to death for no good reason apart from being in a country ruled by crooks. The microphone licking champion doesn't know anything apart from sharing food to people like chickens in a pen. Hunger will deal with people of this country till they learn to elect credible candidates. |

Nigerians will learn...and they will learn the hard way. After 8 long years of Buhari's misrule, Nigerians failed to take the opportunity for a total, complete rejection of the APC and all it stands for. With their own hands, Nigerians decided to reinforce failure. It was under an APC government led by Buhari that warehouses filled with Covid 19 rations were attacked and looted by desperate, hungry Nigerians. The callousness of keeping those foodstuffs hidden away to rot in warehouses - while Nigerians were starving during lockdown - should have led to a total rejection of the APC in the 2023 elections. That was the smart thing to do. But Nigerians refused to do the right thing. Fast forward to 2024. It is under another failed APC government led by Bola Tinubu that Nigerians are now dying in stampedes while trying to get government 'palliatives' - in Lagos, in Nassarawa, you name it. Nigerians are now attacking and looting trucks, warehouses, shops etc. like common criminals - just like they did in Buhari's time. While Nigeria's peers from way back have moved from strength to strength, building opportunity for their people and charting the course for their generations yet unborn, Nigeria is regressing into utter chaos. And we did it with our own hands. We will learn the hard way. |
