Hundreds of residents of a community said to be in Katsina have reportedly looted food stuffs from trailers reportedly belonging to Dangote.
It is not clear the food products on the trailers that were blocked and looted. But Dangote is known as one of the leading manufacturers of flour, noodles, sugar, salt, etc.
In the video, children, women, and men were all seen involved in the looting.
The video has elicited reactions from Nigerians on X.
@ShehuSani said: “Katsina people, why did you attack Dangote food truck. Please don’t repeat it.”
@PIDOMNIGERIA said: “They blocked Dangote trailer carrying food, and looted everything. Very soon the elites will soon be their next meal.”
@KawuGarba said: “President Tinubu is playing with fire. Citizens are hungry to the extent of coming out and looting a Dangote truck transporting food items. If massive protests about hunger break out nationwide, our overstretched security agencies can not control it.”
Waspapping_ said: “They have started blocking Dangote trailers carrying foodstuff. If President Bola Tinubu doesn’t address the issue of hunger urgently, people won’t just stop at blocking trailers carrying foodstuffs; they’ll start breaking into the houses of politicians & wealthy people.”
@Good_citizins said: “The language a hungry man understands is food, don’t blame them. One needs to live first before being law-abiding.”
