TVC E. The tribal clash in Mile 12 seems to have increased today Friday.
A resident of Agiliti Street in Mile 12, near Lagos, today pleaded with the police authorities to provide adequate security for the burial of people killed in the bloody clash in the area on Thursday.
He said the tense security in the area was not conducive for proper interment of the dead.
”Some of the corpse are inside Agiliti River. We cannot bury or retrieve the bodies in the river because of the security situation.

”The burial ground we use is at Agiliti. We have sent message to the DPO in charge of this area that we need police escort to bury them.”
The resident, who said he was born at Mile 12 more than 30 years ago, blamed the deadly clash on hoodlums extorting money from commercial motorcyclists and trucks carrying food items.
He advised that armed security men should be stationed permanently in the area in view of the incessant clashes.
”Security agents did not respond quickly when we called them. If they had responded immediately, the crisis would have been contained in time,” he said.
