Hoodlums have allegedly stabbed a man, Peter Nnamdi, to death, after invading a shanty in the Ebute Metta area of Lagos State.
According to PUNCH normal activities were ongoing when the hoodlums invaded the area around 9.05pm on Tuesday.
The gang was said to have attempted to dispose Nnamdi of his mobile phone before stabbing him in the neck and ribs.
