Hoodlums on Sunday morning invaded the residence of former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, situated along the University of Jos Teaching Hospital road, searching for COVID-19 palliatives.

According to report, they stormed his residence at 9:00am.

The police men and other security operatives who were on patrol to enforce the statewide curfew imposed by the governor were overwhelmed due to the large number of crowd as they shot into the air to disperse the hoodlums.

“They broke into the house of the former speaker and attacked everyone, including Dogara’s brother and they were moving anything they see.

“They carted away items such as tricycles, furniture, electronics and other valuables of the house,” according to an eyewitness.

Dogara’s residence was one of the many buildings invaded by hoodlums on Sunday.
