Thieves Strip Streetlights on Long Ridge Road, Lagos Plunged into Darkness

Metal arms, bolts and solar panels are stolen and sold as scrap. All that remains are bare stumps and gaps where light used to shine. This bold theft leaves residents and drivers at risk. Security agencies must step in quickly to restore safety and deter further damage.
