Several residents of Lagos on Thursday broke into a warehouse in Monkey Village, Maza Maza in Amuwo Odofin which houses COVID-19 palliatives.
Some of the items they made away with included rice, macaroni, spaghetti, salt, garri, sugar and cartons of noodles.
The items were labelled ‘CACOVID, NOT FOR SALE’.
Launched in March this year, CACOVID (Coalition Against COVID-19) is a private sector-led organisation established to assist the government in combating the coronavirus disease.
“People were begging them and they refused, so when they left, they broke into the warehouse. The government stocked food there while people are suffering,” a resident told Premium Times.
A similar incident has been recorded in FESTAC area of the state among other locations.
