No fewer than 200 structures were burnt on Wednesday in Otodo Gbame, an
Egun community in the Lekki Phase 1 area of Lagos, during a clash
between some Egun and Yoruba youths.
The crisis was said to have started on Sunday, when the Yoruba youths demanded that the residents should relocate from the area. It was gathered that the Egun community insisted that residents would not leave their houses, tagging the youths as hoodlums and land grabbers. And it led to serious fight.

Thankfully, men of the Nigeria Police Force, Lagos Command, have restored calm.
