 BREAKING: Abuja Okada riders set houses on fire over colleagues’ death.

Over 100 motorcycles invaded Same Global Estate in Abuja’s Lokogoma neighborhood to avenge the deaths of two comrades.

The incident occurred on Sunday after a vehicle allegedly hit two Okada riders and fled into the estate for protection.

According to nmmabunda.com, the Okada riders set fire to two buildings on the estate.

According to residents of the estate, the motorcyclists attacked the estate in an attempt to catch an unknown motorist.

They observed that the motorist was pursued by a large gathering of motorcyclists after he overtook two motorcyclists.

We learned that security officers had arrived at the estate to prevent more property damage.

Mr. Adebisi Adelowo, the Estate Manager, told reporters,

“Over 100 Hausa bike riders stormed our estate a few hours ago.” They attempted to burn down the estate by setting fire to two structures.

“They pulled down our gate and started stoning people’s houses. We couldn’t stop them until the police and the army intervened.

“We later learnt that they attacked our estate because two of their colleagues were knocked to death by a motorist who ran to our estate for safety as he was been chased with big stones and other dangerous weapons.

“The motorist who is not even a resident of our estate ran into the estate because he noticed a police post in front of the estate.”
