“The armed robbers challenged me while robbing my co-tenants, they threatened that if I come out that that will be the end of my life, just imagine those young boys threatening to send me to my early grave”.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Another victim, a nurse who left her aged mother at home while she went to work thanked God that the robbers only carted away valuables and spared her mother.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“I praise God for my mother because she was not attacked or harmed, most times we read sad news on the internet that a woman of about 75 years was raped to death after robbing the family but in my mother’s case they just cart away valuables, the most important thing is life .

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

She pleaded with the Area N police command and the Lagos state government to engage other sister security agencies to join and increase the presence of security personal within the affected areas.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“In this area, we have good security outfits and vigilante groups who try their best to fight these crimes but they are not enough to cover the whole area”.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A food seller popularly know as Iya Amala said the armed robbers usually come on a weekly basis to rob and cart away the food stuff she stock in the cafeteria that she manages.

 

“These people will wait for me to stock my place with food stuff before they will come to rob the place.

 

“They are wicked, I am now a debtor, the money I collected from the cooperative contribution which I use in managing the business have all gone due to the continued attacks”.

 

Another victim who chose to remain anonymous said her house was also burgled on Saturday and the miscreants took her son’s two laptops and her phone through the window.

 

“We were sleeping and nobody knew when they carried out the attack, it was when I woke up about 4.15am to make use of the restroom that I found out that my windows had been vandalized.

 

“We discovered that they came in through the fence, jumped inside, cut four nets and removed the laptops and my phone

 

I don’t know if what is happening now is the ripple effects of the current hardship in the country.

 

“We are calling on the federal government, state and the Nigeria police to increase their surveillance in our area as nobody is sleeping with his or her two eyes closed.

 

Another source said all the streets were attacked on Saturday morning,the attacks was terrible this gangs were cutting window nets sharp object removing people valuables someone can sleep again.

As we stand here today, we are on the threshold of a new year. A year full of possibilities, opportunities, and promise. But before we step into the unknown, let’s take a moment to reflect on 2024.

Let's reflect as we wrap-up 2024"By Prudent Ludidi

Look back on the triumphs and the struggles. The moments that made you proud and the moments that made you question yourself. Think about the goals you set and the ones you achieved.

Reflection is not about dwelling on the past; it’s about learning from it. It’s about identifying what worked and what didn’t. What you can improve on and what you can let go of.

As you reflect on the past year, remember that you are not the same person you were these couple of months ago. You’ve grown, you’ve learned, and you’ve evolved.

Don’t be too hard on yourself about the mistakes you made or the opportunities you missed. Instead, focus on the progress you’ve made and the strength you’ve gained.

Now, as we wrap up this year and prepare for the next, ask yourself:

What do I want to achieve in the coming year?

What habits do I want to form?

What relationships do I want to nurture?

What skills do I want to develop?

What dreams do I want to chase?

The upcoming year is a blank canvas, waiting for you to paint your masterpiece. Don’t let fear or doubt hold you back. You have the power to create the life you want.

So, as we near the close of this chapter and begin a new one, remember that every ending marks a new beginning. Every setback is an opportunity for growth. And every success is a stepping stone to greater things.
