Some officials of the Lagos State Environmental Sanitation and Special Offences Unit (Task Force) were attacked by alleged miscreants during a raid on illegal abattoirs at Oshodi & Idi-Araba, during the weekend. The illegal abattoirs that were supposed to be sealed were considered not to be in line with the statutory standards as contained in the Lagos State Environmental Sanitation Laws.
Miscreants and operators of the illegal abattoirs attacked them in order attempt to prevent them from doing any work at Idi Araba. They were roughly stabbed with cutlasses & broken bottles while their official vehicles: two Toyota Hilux vans and a Black Maria were severely vandalized.
