On Tuesday, hoodlums engaged in violence in Lagos State’s Magodo Isheri neighborhood after a court decision.
According to information obtained, some hoodlums attacked the area to stop court bailiffs from pasting an Appeal Court decision from March 16, 2023, which confirmed the local landlords as the rightful owners of the land.
It was said that the thugs broke into the palace of the Isheri ruler, where several dignitaries were meeting. There was a fight because some of the local adolescents fought the intruders.
According to reports, during the altercation, the hoodlums, who were armed, participated in a free-for-all, escalating the tension and sending shivers down the spines of landlords, neighbors, and business owners operating in the neighborhood.
