Joey Akan , who took a walk around the area on Thursday
morning, tweeted what he saw:
“I just returned home from my walk, where I strolled to
Circle Mall at Jakande.
“The place is on fire, still being looted, and people are
proudly carrying loot on their heads and shoulders.
“I couldn’t take photos. Boys are armed with cutlasses and knives. A few looked my way”.

I couldn't take photos. Boys are armed with cutlasses and knives. A few looked my way.
The Shoprite outlet in the mall was looted last year
September in the wake of reactions to the xenophobia against Nigerians in South
Africa.
The Novare Mall in Sangotedo, Lekki was similarly attacked, with many shops emptied.
