Hundreds of hoodlums have taken to the street of Calabar, the Cross River State capital, to loot and burn down some major public property including the new building of the Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC.

The Calabar Municipality Zonal office of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC office, and other major private shopping malls including Value Mart owned by the wife of former Governor of Cross River State, Obioma Liyel Imoke, was burnt down.

The youths, who are still destroying property in Calabar, earlier looted the COVID-19 palliative warehouse.

Meanwhile, Cross River State Governor, Professor Ben Ayade, has pleaded with the rampaging youths who set ablaze various public buildings in Calabar Friday night in the name of End SARS protest, that enough is enough as their voices have been heard.

Ayade, in a special broadcast early Saturday morning to the youths, urged them to abide by the rules of engagements of the curfew.

Hundreds of youths under the guise of the End SARS protesters, on Friday night, went against the curfew order and engaged in looting, vandalizing, and destroying public and private property in the major street of Calabar.
