Hoodlums have again attacked a government warehouse on Medical Store Road, Uselu, and looted COVID-19 palliatives stored in the warehouse.

The thugs who had in the early hours of the morning been prevented by military personnel from carrying out the act, succeeded in breaking the human shield mounted by the military and entered the store in their numbers.

No incident of shooting was recorded as the looters, mostly youths, carted away food items from the warehouse.

Many, however, sustained varying degrees of injuries in the nsuing rush.

Similar palliatives warehouses had been looted in Lagos, Jos, Kwara, Osun, Akure, and many other major cities.

There have been reports of widespread violence, arson and looting in the country as hoodlums took advantage of the #EndSARS protests to wreak havoc and cause mayhem in the country.
