Misguided idiots taking their first step into banditry. First, expel the students, cancel the graduate's certificate and then jail them for two years. But naija police sabi fumble, why mention MP3 as if it is Ak47? Why una no mention the small change for their wallets which I am sure will become permanent exhibit never to be recorded.

UPDATED: One killed, three others feared dead in AirForce, traders clash


Sporadic gunshots rented Ladipo International market, in Mushin area of Lagos, yesterday, during a violent clash between a team of Air Force personnel attached to one of the Military operations known as OP MESSA at traders.

One person was killed by a bullet while doctors at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital, LUTH were still battling to save the life of three others, at 5 pm.

Scores of traders sustained varying degrees of injuries while their vehicles were riddled with bullets.

There were different accounts as to how the trouble started. A version of the account said a man who was clad in a white shirt on a tracksuit went to the Aguiyi Ironsi International Market Traders Association Task Force Wing, at about 11 am, demanding to see the Chairman.

The visitor who was said to have refused to state the reason for his visit was taken to the Public Complaint Committee head, who thereafter, took him to the association’s chairman, Mr Emmanuel Mbamara, who at that time was with some persons.

Eyewitnesses said Mbamara gave the visitor audience but interrupted him halfway, explaining that his case needed proper attention. He was said to have told the visitor to sit down, while he concluded with others who were in his office earlier.

But the visitor reportedly picked offense, insisting that he should be attended to. This led to verbal confrontation as the visitor was alleged to have used unprintable words on Mbamara.

Some traders suspected to be members of the task force were said to have pushed the visitor out of the office, in the process of which a fight broke out and he (visitor) was overpowered.

The visitor reportedly left, disclosing that he was a soldier. He later returned with an armed team of Military personnel in an OP MESSA Hilux Van.

Another version of the account had it that a soldier with the Nigerian Army accompanied his civilian friend who had a problem with the engine he earlier bought from one of the traders to the market. An altercation over the trader’s refusal to change the engine began.

It degenerated into a fight, during which the Military man said to be in mufti and his civilian friend were overpowered. The civilian friend was said to have managed to wriggle himself from the traders’ grip and went out to alert the Air Force personnel on patrol of an attack on a soldier.

A third version of the account said trouble started following an argument between a trader and a customer who went to buy a car engine ensued, over the trader’s refusal to give the customer another key starter in replacement of a faulty one he earlier bought.

However, a fourth report said the customer brought an engine he earlier bought from a trader at the market because it was faulty. The trader was said to have argued that the guaranteed date on the receipt of purchase had expired, thereby refusing to change it as requested by the traders.

Gunshots
Vanguard gathered that immediately the Hilux Van arrived at the section of the market, the Military personnel jumped out of the van and made straight for the Task Force stand to effect the arrest of a man whom the aggrieved trader pointed as one of those that attacked him.

However, the attempt was resisted by traders, who struggled the man out of the AirForce personnel’s grip.

The entire market was thrown into disarray as the traders allegedly engaged the Air Force personnel in fisticuffs. In the process, the AirForce personnel were said to have opened fire.

One of the traders who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said, “None of them (Air Force personnel) wore name tags. They fired directly at traders. One of the traders was shot in the stomach. Several persons sustained varying degrees of injuries in their bid to avoid being hit by bullets.

“When we realised that one of the traders was killed by bullets from the OP MESSA men, we blocked the way, preventing them from leaving because we were not sure if they were there legally or not and also if they were genuine Military personnel.

“As that was on, two other Hilux vans drove in and continued another round of shooting. Many traders were shot. The shooting spree lasted close to one hour. While that was on, the Chairman and other leaders of the market contacted the Army and Commissioner of Police.”

Identities of dead, injured
One of the traders whose life was snuffed out by bullets was identified simply as Scatter. His corpse was deposited at the Isolo General Hospital mortuary.

Doctors at LUTH were still battling to save the life of three other traders whose identities were given as Ifeanyi Eyin, Makwo Epuna and Chidinmma Okechukwu.

Eyin was said to be escaping from the scene when a bullet hit him in the back. Epuna was shot in the buttocks while Okechukwu who was on Oxygen at the hospital was about to be rolled into the theatre for surgery at 4 pm.

Military react
Vanguard first contacted the Nigerian Army, as the personnel were said to be soldiers attached to the Nigerian Army. But the Nigerian Army clarified that its personnel were not involved in the shooting spree, referring Vanguard to the Air Force.

When the Director, Public Relations, Nigerian AirForce, Air Commodore Edward Gabkwet, was contacted, he disclosed that the team that went to the market had been taken to the Logistics Command of the Nigerian Air Force for interrogation.

He explained that “We were told that an Army personnel and a civilian friend of his went to Ladipo market to confront someone that was alleged to be owing to the Army personnel. While at the market, an argument started and they started exchanging blows.

The Army personnel were subdued, the civilians ran out to look for assistance. He saw some Air Force personnel on patrol. He beckoned on them that a soldier was under attack

“When they got to the scene to contain the fight, the traders started hauling stones at them. Along the line, one of the traders attempted to snatch a rifle from one of the Air Force personnel. He succeeded, snatched the rifle, and attempted to shoot our personnel. The Army soldier was able to collect the rifle and opened fire on the traders.

“The Nigerian Air Force personnel that were in that market did not really kill anybody. The Army soldier who collected the rifle that was snatched from OP MESSA, opened fire in self-defense.

“Our Base Commander was able to calm the situation. He visited the scene. Those involved have been arrested and are under investigation. We heard only one person was shot. An investigation is however ongoing.”

Hoodlums hijack situation
Meanwhile, hoodlums hijacked the situation to attack motorists on both sides of the ever-busy Oshodi/ Apapa Expressway, at the Toyota bus stop. The attack was said to be a protest of the death of traders by the Military.

They shattered defenseless motorists’ windscreens, dispossessing them of phones, cash, and other valuables. Some of those attacked were traders and workers who were returning from their respective business places.

At press time, leaders at the market and senior Air Force personnel were at the Lagos State Police Command headquarters, Ikeja.
