Lagos is boling now as Yoruba youths demand Oduduwa Republic
Recent clashes between Hausa Fulani and many communities in Lagos contnues to escalate. Many reports around the  news media in Lagos reports that the Nigerian Army is backing the Hausa Fulani community in Lagos leading to more killings in Lagos. As a result, the Lagos Youths are calling for the dissolution of Nigeria as according to them, Nigeria is now a failed state. They are asking for the creation of Oduduwa republic.
According to Newsweek:

Bloody clashes in the Mile 12, Ketu area of Lagos State on Thursday left no fewer than 10 persons dead and about 100 others injured.

Among the dead were two schoolchildren, traders, artisans and residents.

A two-year-old boy, Andrew Daniel, was abducted by some hoodlums and taken away after his father, Igba, was attacked with machetes and left for the dead.

The PUNCH, which witnessed part of the clashes as it unfolded, counted no fewer than 40 vehicles that were either burnt or vandalised in the Agiliti area of Ketu.

Two churches and over 20 houses were equally set ablaze and hundreds of residents rendered homeless in Maidan community as a result of the violence which was said to have broken out after a disagreement between some Yoruba and Hausa in the area.

 

The army RR squad is working round the clock. According to sources, the Youruba people wants to show hausa that they are not Igbos that take issues like this for granted because  they want to protect their business.
