Residents of Ikola in Lagos State have appealed to President Bola Tinubu, Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, and security authorities for increased security following a series of violent incidents and alleged cult-related activities. The community has been experiencing fear and harassment, with some residents claiming they are no longer able to live normally due to the ongoing threats.
A security source suggested that a welding workshop near Wazobia Market may have been used as a meeting place for alleged cult members, though this could not be independently verified. Other residents mentioned instances of extortion, harassment, and demands for money from motorists and shop owners. Despite these allegations, they could not be confirmed.
Some residents expressed reluctance to speak publicly due to fear of reprisals. The residents called for a thorough investigation into the violence and for additional security personnel to be deployed in the area.
