There is palpable fear among residents of Mile 12, Kosofe Local Government Area of Lagos, as hoodlums have reportedly gone on rampage, razing shops and vandalising vehicles.
While details are still sketchy as at press time, unconfirmed reports say the disturbance was caused by an ethnic clash that broke out in the area.
Also, it is believed that at least six persons have lost their lives in the fracas, while a school has also been razed.
Some policemen have also been injured, The Punch reports.
