The protesters also lamented poor supply of electricity to the community which according to them, aided the incessant robbery attacks in the area.
“We’re tired of this crisis. Today alone, armed robbers stole a car, over 30 phones, laptops and other items. They were knocking on doors and since there is not light, it was difficult to trace them,” one of the protesters identified as Kola said.
