Kosofe Residents Confront Suspected Scavenger Over Alleged Safety Barrier Vandalism

Residents of Kosofe, Lagos, confronted a suspected scavenger accused of removing parts of an iron safety barrier at Kosofe Bus Stop, Mile 12. A video circulating online shows a resident questioning the man, who was allegedly damaging the barrier while claiming to be collecting scrap. The barrier was installed to stop pedestrians from crossing the expressway at unsafe points. Residents say the removal of metal components could weaken the structure and put both pedestrians and motorists at risk. They have called for closer monitoring and enforcement to protect public infrastructure. The incident follows similar concerns at Festac Bridge, where suspected scavengers were accused of removing iron reinforcements from concrete pillars.
