Pics: One dead from today's fight between Okada men & thugs in Lekki

Apparently the fight between Okadamen, bus drivers and thugs today in the Lekki Phase 1 area of Lagos was more serious than we thought. Machetes were used and someone died.

A young man was struck in the back of the head with a Machette and was taken to the nearest place they could find, a lab, not a hospital. The lab called for an ambulance to take the injured man to a hospital and for 3 hours, no ambulance showed up. The guy eventually died possibly from loss of blood. Above is a pic of his body as it was being transported in a police van via Lekki-Ikoyi bridge.

  19. it was really a terrible site to behold, i have never seen any team of dedicated workers(doctors and nurses) in mecure healthcare lekki like any hospital as they battled to keep the man alive to at least help him stop bleeding so he can live till the so called ambulance arrive( several calls were made to the ambulance services in lag since 9am ( they kept on saying they are on their way ) but none came in till he eventually gave up 2hrs later after losing so much blood the cuts on his head were massive u cant imagine it i tell u......even till then no ambulance came in till past 1pm. kudos to mecure staff i really appreciate your services to humanity today you all amazed me

  20. Was there no car around to take the man to the hospital? Why wait for ambulance ?it's an emergency and people should learn to help in times like this. Now all the people around should be held for his death because they played a role. They can't bring him back now.

  23. Linda, I happen to be a resident of lekki and witnessed the life depart from this guy as doctors tried to save him. I saw with my korokoro eyes how police men driving their pick up trucks had machete wielding area boys as passengers, driving towards the area of the melee! Bythis time I was already trying to flee from the area of the trouble.
    I had cause to leave my house and pass by the area of the fight after things had calmed down when I saw some of these area boys smoking,some were drinking, some were being brought food sef and some still had their machete in their hands! Can you believe the the armed security agents there did nothing! At some point they were gone. As I said earlier, I had cause to go out again to the establishment where that injured guy was because I had an appointment. I had never before seen someone die but unfortunately that guy died o. I wept, not for anything but because he might have left his house in the morning and said 'mum/dad/sister/brother see you later'. I watched as his stomach lay so flat, showing that he was not breathing again. Truamatisezed is an understatement for what I felt and still feel. And at that point I hated my country. I just hope one day we can move forward. God bless.
