No fewer than four unidentified persons have been reportedly after a clash between the Lagos Task Force, tanker drivers, and touts at Mile 2.

According to an eyewitness, the incident occurred on Tuesday morning, September 5, 2023.

The eyewitness who identified himself as Richard Igbe, explained that there was a fight on top of the Mile 2-Oshodi bridge and the fighters barricaded the bridge blocking the access road.


He is unsure of the cause of the fight but claimed that four persons were dead from gunshots.

According to him, “Mile 2 is on fire, both the task force, tanker drivers, and touts are fighting seriously. I don’t know what caused the fight but I am just hiding at Fagbems Filling station at Mile 2 and watching.

“I am going to work but I am stranded as they barricade the whole of Mile 2 that nobody will pass”, he said.

A video sighted by our correspondent showed people running for their lives while tires were being burnt.
