Daily Trust reported that Muhammad Sani stated this in an exclusive interview.

Recall that many states across the federation have been unsettled by the ongoing nationwide hunger and hardship protest by the Nigerian youths to draw the federal and state governments’ attention to the worsening plight of the citizens.

Muhammad Sani said; “We have branches at Lodge Road, Korau Road and Rijiyar Zaki; then our warehouse inside Garba AD House, just beside the Government House.

We share the same fence. On that day (August 1), I, alongside some of our supervisors, spent the night dispatching security operatives across the branches up till around 7am. When I went home to rest, my wife woke me up and told me that there is a problem with our store.”

Muhammad Sani added; “What we lost is estimated at between N4.5 billion and N5 billion, and it may even be higher.

We have expensive things there. We have two containers from China, two and half containers from Turkey that came less than two months ago.”


The store owner stated further; “About 1,000 cartons of vegetable oil were looted also. We did not even pay for it. We were billed to pay up later. There are other goods we brought from Lagos; about 30 vans”
