FCT Abuja, Nigeria – As economic hardship continues to grip the nation, residents of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja, took matters into their own hands, descending on a National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) warehouse in a desperate search for essential supplies.
A large crowd gathered outside the NEMA warehouse located in Abuja. With frustrations boiling over due to rising prices and scarcity of basic goods, the crowd eventually breached the warehouse gates, leading to a chaotic scene of looting.
Witnesses reported seeing men, women, and even children carrying away bags of rice, cartons of noodles, and other food items. Some were seen struggling under the weight of their loot, while others frantically grabbed whatever they could find.
