Must read

Two persons were killed and several others injured during a bloody clash between members of a vigilante group and social miscreants, otherwise known as area boys,  in the densely populated Ajegunle area of Lagos, Tuesday, April 26, 2016.

It was gathered that fight broke out following argument over sharing formula of currency popularly known as ‘Owo omonile.’

It was alleged that one of the factional leaders identified simply as Ezekiel, a member of a vigilante group,  collected an undisclosed amount of  ‘Owo Omonile’  from a man who was erecting  a building in Arumoh Street.

When confronted by the area boys , Ezekiel refused to part with any sum, a development that led to a free -for- all between Ezekiel’s loyalists and the area boys, during which dangerous objects such as cutlasses , axes, broken bottles and even guns were used.
