According to previous reports from 460PLAY, a brawl between criminals and military officers caused chaos to break out at the famous Banex Plaza phone market in Abuja’s Wuse 2 neighborhood.
According to FCT Police Public Relations Officer SP Josephine Adeh, “One Suleiman Ahmed who had earlier gotten a phone from one Suleiman Ibrahim, a shop owner at New Banex, went with four soldiers to persuade the seller for replacement upon discovery that the phone is faulty, which met the resistance of the shop owner.” She went on to explain what happened in the beloved phone market.
A dispute and altercation with the military troops ensued as a consequence of the action, as reported by the police.
According to the PPRO, the development sparked a riot in the neighborhood as angry crowds attacked military officers in the market.
