AT least, three policemen and several others were injured on
Tuesday when suspected miscreants around Apata area in
Ibadan unleashed terror on the area over sale of “faulty new”
handset.


Trouble started when one of the attackers was alleged to have
bought a handset from an Igbo trader but discovered that it was
not in good condition. But in an attempt to return the handset,
the trader refused to accept it, claiming that it was purchased in
good condition.


The refusal, according to an eyewitness who pleaded
anonymity, provoked the buyer who then mobilised his group
who were alleged to have been armed with dangerous weapons
around the area to fight back.


According to the witness “The buyer is a Yoruba man and an
‘agbero’ who got angry after discovering that the handset he
just bought was not good. The Igbo trader stood his ground that
he would not accept the handset. Before now, there were an
unreported enmity between the Igbo traders in the area and some
suspected miscreants who collect ‘settlement’ from the traders
and commercial drivers regularly.


“The buyer left but returned with many touts who attacked the
traders and chased them away. They also attacked other people
while three policemen were injured.”


The policemen, according to the eyewitness, were injured in
their bid to broker peace between the warring factions.
The Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Oyo State Police
Command, DSP Adekunle Ajisebutu, confirmed the incident.


He said the police command was aware of the trouble in the
area, saying it was sparked by the illegal money some
miscreants collected from commercial drivers.

Wack Journalism..
Tales fed to confused people, two different cause of the fight.

Sure a nairalander will have the 3rd version.

Very soon Agbero go dey collect house rent after u must have paid ur landlord..

Have this personal hatred for threads with tribal undertone.....igbo trader, yoruba miscreants.....better words could have been employed

Lol this Op is a tribal war lord. But actually yoruba's are good at this, they look for every little chance to cause problems with ibo's. I'm sure the phone might even be original.
