Some residents of the Federal Capital Territory on Sunday looted a warehouse reportedly belonging to the National Emergency Management Agency over the current economic hardship across the country.

The PUNCH learnt that the warehouse is situated in the Phase 3 Region of the FCT area of Abuja.

In a viral video on X (formerly Twitter), the voice of a man present at the scene was heard narrating how many people were breaking into the warehouse and looting different food items at sight.

Confirming the incident to our correspondent, the spokesperson for the FCT command, Josephine Adeh, verified the incident in a text message saying, “The situation is now under control.”


Recall that recently human rights groups, the Joint Action Front and the Coalition for Revolution hit the streets of Lagos State to protest against the soaring price of food and the high cost of living in the country.

In a similar vein, youths in Ibadan, Oyo State capital, on Monday, hit the street to protest the skyrocketing price of food and the state of the economy.

The PUNCH observed that protesters gathered around the Mokola area in the state wielding placards with various inscriptions such as ‘End food hike and inflation,’ ‘The poor are starving,’ and ‘Tinubu, don’t forget your promises,’ among others.

They were also chanting songs to show their grievances.

Please they should ransack and loot aso rock and its inhabitants. They should continue looting as long as they are not looting individual's goods. They should ransack and loot all the government's departments, agencies and the national assembly as well.

Ebin pawa is real.

I pity Nigerians, especially those places where Tinubu didn't win. SE, SS, NC, Abj, Lagos, Osun, etc. They do not deserve this Tinubulation.
