VIDEO: Hoodlums invade NYSC orientation camp in Kubwa

Armed hoodlums on Tuesday invaded the National Youth Service Corps NYSC Orientation Camp in the Kubwa area of the Federal Capital Territory FCT, Abuja, carting away mattresses, utensils, electronics and other items.

The hoodlums were reportedly armed with jackknives, sticks, machetes and other dangerous weapons and had blocked the road at about 9 am, turning back motorists while the Kubwa village market was immediately shut down by its managers to avoid any invasion.

When discovered that the warehouse at the camp was empty, the hoodlums attacked some residents of the camp as well as shops adjacent the camp.

Some residents of the area were said to have also joined in the looting.
