The family house of Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, on Omidudun Street, has been attacked by irate youths.

Recall that Sanwo-Olu on Tuesday imposed 24 hours curfew in the state due to the #EndSARS protests.

Eyewitness which spoke with Punch noted that one of the youths was seen with a jerry can of petrol and was soaking the house in petrol but was quickly stopped by residents for fear that the fire could spread uncontrollably

The eyewitness said, “Around 7.45am, angry youths gathered around Sanwo-Olu’s family home on Omididun Street, Lagos Island, throwing stones and shattering glasses.”

“One of the youths poured petrol on the building but was immediately prevented from setting it ablaze because the fire could spread and lead to loss of lives.”

Further report reveals that policemen attached to the Adeniji Adele Police Station were at the scene in a bid to quell the violence.
