Hoodlums on Thursday stormed Lagos Government House, Alausa and attacked #EndSARS protesters.
They arrived in BRT buses chasing the protesters away with clubs and cutlasses.
The hoodlums were also reported to have stormed the Berger end of the Lagos-Ibadan expressway to disrupt the peaceful protests.
According to the protesters, who slept overnight in the area, the hoodlums arrived around 8:00 am in large numbers.
They were said to be well-organised and armed.
An eye witness said they came in about 20 buses.
“We managed to copy one of the bus serial number: S/N 240171,” a protester said.
Debo Adebayo, popularly known as MC Macaroni, in a series of tweets, also recounted how they were chased away.
As the time of this report, the protesters have regrouped and returned to the entrance of the Lagos Assembly. (The Nation)
