Some hoodlums on Tuesday morning broke into the Orientation Camp of the National Youth Corps (NYSC) in Kubwa, Abuja.
The thugs armed with knives and other sharp objects blocked the road and ordered motorists to turn back.
The hoodlums, in large number, carted away the foodstuff, mattresses and other items meant for the Corps members when the orientation programme resumes on November 9.
Residents in the neighbourhood also took advantage of the unrest to participate in the looting.
Security men at the scene shot sporadic gunshots to deter the miscreants, while a police helicopter was also sighted flying towards the scene.
