A truck conveying food items was looted by some angry residents of Ondo state amid current hardship affecting the country.
It was gathered that the driver of the truck was overpowered after his vehicle developed a mechanical fault at the popular cultural centre junction on Ondo express road, on Tuesday.
However, remnants of the food items were observed on the roadside.
According to Daily Trust, the loaded truck was conveying food items, particularly grains in some cartoons branded in President Bola Tinubu’s name.

Eye witness who confirmed the development to the platform revealed that those who attacked the truck and also looted its contents included petty traders, artisans, drivers and commercial motorcyclists.
He said: “How they got to know the content still surprised me. The truck developed a mechanical fault and before we knew it the residents forced it open.
“They began to bring out the items in the pack which are mostly grains like rice and garri branded in President Tinubu’s blue colour, name and logo.”
