Traders and area boys reported engaged in combat this morning, October 19, causing chaos at the Lagos State’s well-known Alaba International market.

Yet-to-be-verified reports state that the traders are against the area boys, also known as Agberos, who constantly extort money from them.
SP Benjamin Hundeyin, a spokesman for the Lagos State Police Command, reacted to the incident, stating that the police are attempting to re-establish order in the area.

As a result of the clash, some persons were fatally injured and required medical attention.
However, they have been reportedly transported to the hospital. See the images and videos below.
