Report reaching WuzupNaija has it that there is serious armed robbery on Ikorodu road, a suburb of Lagos, at the moment.
Sources told our correspondent that the armed men stormed the road and held vehicle owners to ransom as a heavy gridlock on the road has prevented the people from moving backwards or forward.
A distress message sent by one of those in the congestion at the moment reads: “Itowolo on fire now. Armed robbers are on the way with heavy guns. All vehicles are parked on the road no movement… pls share.”
Lagosians had complained about the heavy congestion on the road all evening as there had been a standstill in virtually every part of the road, but the recent reports show the congestion may have degenerated into another case of armed robbery.
The Lagos state governor, Akinwunmi Ambode and other relevant security agents are being beckoned upon to help salvage the situation.
