Soldiers set BRT buses ablaze in Lagos to protest 'death' of colleague

Soldiers went on rampage on the street of the ever-busy Lagos-Ikorodu road on Friday, burning public buses (also known as BRT).
The soldiers were said to have taken to the street in protest of the alleged death of one of their colleagues, who was said to have been hit by a ‘BRT’ bus.
A latest report, however, suggested that the solider did not die, but was still being attended to at an undisclosed hospital.
Apart from vandalizing some of the long buses, the soldiers also assaulted some commuters caught up in the crisis.
Some Lagos residents, who attempted capturing the event on their mobile devices were also maltreated, and had their devices smashed.
Also, a security guard in the area was killed by the rampaging soldiers leading to a complete breakdown of laws and order in the area.
