MYSTERIOUS CROCODILE TERRORISES RESIDENTS OF IKOTUN/IGANDO AREA

Residents of Joshua Okeowo

and Bepo Communities in Ikotun/Igando suburb of Lagos State have raised the alarm over the continued presence of a 'mystery crocodile' in the area.

Some of the residents told the News Agency of Nigeria on Saturday that the reptile had lived in the area for 15 years and had constantly been

tormenting them.

"We are tired of the crocodile. It has been around for some time and comes out during the rainy season into the flooded streets to attack us.

"A number of residents had been attacked and seriously wounded by this animal. Only a fortnight ago, it was spotted swimming towards a school boy playing in the flood.

"If not that some adult residents rushed to the scene and rescued the boy, it would have been a different story.

Honestly we are tired," said a

resident, Mr. Alabi Rabiu.



Another resident, Babatunde Alabi, said the continued presence of the crocodile in the area had made the residents live in perpetual fear.

According to him, the reptile has chosen a permanent habitat in an uncompleted building in the area, making it difficult for residents to move freely. Pointing at the abandoned building sitting on a swamp, he said, "That is where it lives, everybody knows but nobody dares go there.

"Some people have made attempts to get rid of it

without success. The animal is feared by everyone. We need the government to help us,"he said.



According to Alabi, the crocodile once lived in a nearby canal from where it swam into the community and decided to stay there permanently.

30 people were allegedly killed while four police officers and the village head of Ntan Obu Ukpe in Eniong in Odukpani local government area of Cross River State were beheaded in a communal clash between the Ntan Obu and the Ikpanya in Ibiono local government area of Akwa Ibom State on Tuesday. According to a local newspaper, about 2,000 indigenes of Ntan Obu were forced to take refuge in nearby communities of Odukpani council as many houses including churches were destroyed during the crisis. The Chairman of Odukpani Local council, Stephen Asuquo, while confirming the incident, told journalists that the people of Ntan Obu were attacked by the Ikpanaya neighbouring community of Akwa Ibom State, last week. "The remote cause, I can say, is the struggle by people from the Ikpanya for the land that belongs to the Ntan Obu.Ikpanya is in Ibiono council of Akwa Ibom State while Ntan Obu is in Odukpani council in Cross River State," he said.
