Lagosians are beginning to take laws into their own hands but not as we have always thought. Citizens are beginning to take responsibility for their own security.
Recently Ogun state and Lagos have been experiencing series of attacks from various cult groups. Some affected communities have opted to vigilante groups, residents and able youths in the community who responded in no time to calls of attempted robberies
Precisely in oyemekun Ogba, street youths were able to foil two robbery attacks in the area.
It was earlier announced that police officers had been dispatched to the affected area. Gun shots from police officers were also heard around Ogba and its environs as a way to scare off the attacking cult groups.
