There was tension as Personnel of
the Lagos State Task Force clashed with some hoodlums on Tuesday at Iyana Ipaja
area of Lagos State.
The face-off was believed to have
spilled to the area where the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), is currently
holding its orientation camp along old Ipaja-Agege road.
It was gathered that the men of
the task force (security operatives), arrived the area to raid some erring
motorcycle riders.
Unfortunately, this was met with
resistance as some hoodlums known as area boys attacked the security operatives
while their operation was on-going.
It was gathered that the task
force squad who were almost overpowered by the hoodlums were said to have
called for reinforcement.
The arrival of their colleagues
led to a fight as the area boys began to hurl dangerous weapons at the security
operatives.
Traders and commuters also ran
for safety when the hoodlums were tear-gassed by the team of mobile policemen
who arrived the scene.
Meanwhile, some of the hoodlums
were also seen just a stone throw from the NYSC orientation camp.
The military personnel attached
to the NYSC orientation camp were preventing them from causing commotion near
the camp.
The soldiers were also seen
beating up some of the area boys who were caught.
