Law and Disorder in Lagos is a 2010 British documentary film by Louis Theroux.
Theroux journeys to Lagos, the largest city in Nigeria, to investigate the nature of law and order in the rapidly expanding city. There he follows the Government-run paramilitary task force KAI (Kick Against Indiscipline), notorious union leader MC Oluomo, and young gang members known as "Area Boys" who unofficially run neighbourhoods for money.{{cite news|title= Law and disorder in Lagos|publisher= BBC News|date=8 October 2010|url= https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-11500370|accessdate=4 February 2011}}
