FCT Residents Loot Govt Warehouse In Abuja Over Hardship

FCT residents looted a govt warehouse in Abuja over hardship.

 

Glamtush reports that Abuja residents have looted a warehouse belonging to the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Department of Agriculture.

This online news platform understands that the warehouse was raided by the residents on Sunday morning. They carted away foodstuffs and other items stored in the warehouse.

Earlier reports on social media had claimed that the warehouse belonged to the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA).

However, a source in NEMA who preferred to be anonymous, confirmed that the warehouse does not belong to NEMA but to the FCT Agriculture Department.

On inquiry, the Public Relations Officer of the FCT Agric secretariat, Zakari Aliyu, confirmed to Channels Television in a text message that the looted warehouse belonged to them.

He, however, did not disclose further details on the looted warehouse.

Nigerians have been groaning over hardship and soaring prices of commodities occasioned by government policies, especially the removal of petrol subsidy and unification of the forex rate.

In some states, many Nigerians have taken to the streets in protest of unbearable hardship due to the high cost of commodities, especially food items.
