Looters on rampage in Lagos stealing from shops
during #EndSARS protests (Newsguru)
The army says all recovered looted items have
been returned to the rightful owners.
The Commander of 81 Military Intelligence
Brigade, Victoria Island, Lagos, Brig. Gen. Ahmed
Taiwo says one of the looters arrested during
#EndSARS crisis in October had installed the air
conditioner he stole before his arrest.
Ahmed said this when he appeared before the
Lagos Judicial Panel on Saturday, November 14,
2020, to testify on the role of the military in the
alleged shooting of peaceful protesters , who
convened at Lekki tollgate.

It would be recalled that following the shooting
incident, the protest turned violent in Lagos as
hoodlums and looters hijacked the #EndSARS
campaign to loot and destroy public and private
facilities.

Taiwo said during the crisis, the army made a
number of arrests in connection with the looting and
destruction of properties in the state.
He said, “ The business district areas of Lagos were
looted — Marina, Cash N’ Carry and the Nigerian
Ports Authority (NPA). Vehicles were burnt and
offices ransacked. They were looking for money.
Once a protest lasts three days, hoodlums will begin
to make active plans to penetrate.
“They burnt places like Shoprite, SPAR (Lekki). I was
on ground and what hurt me most was that women,
men and children… mothers were taking their
children to loot.
“At SPAR (Lekki), I met looters looting. These
looters, I’m talking about almost 5,000 people, even
had the temerity to walk up to us with looted goods
and telling us ‘all correct, sir.’
“All the looters were arrested and taken to 65
battalion. We have virtually all tribes represented
among those arrested.
“In one case, the man had looted things required for
a house — doors and AC — and by the time we went
to arrest him, he had already installed them.
