“The motorist who is not even a resident of our estate ran into the estate because he noticed a police post in front of the estate,” he said.

An eye witness, who said his name was Musa told LEADERSHIP at the scene of the incident that large crowd chased a car into the estate and after the estate could not provide the vehicle, they started attacking the buildings and they set fire on the estate.
