Communal Clash Breaks Out In Gwarimpa Estate Abuja

A communal clash broke out in the early hours of Monday in the 3rd Avenue area of Gwarimpa Estate in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.

The clash, it was gathered, was between some Hausa and Gbagyi tricyclists.

Videos on social media show that several persons have been injured.

The cause of the clash is unknown at the time of filing this report, but police officers were captured on camera in their vehicles patroling the area.

The FCT police command is yet to react to the clash at the time of this report.

Recall that few days ago, a squabble over N50 in Yenagoa, the Bayelsa State capital led to the death of more than two people.

The row, according to reports began when a passenger paid a tricycle operator, better known as “Keke Napep” N100 while the tricyclist demanded N150 fee.

This led to the operator stabbing the passenger which resulted in his death.

In other news, Kanyi Daily reported that Nollywood actress, Empress Njamah’s ex-lover, George Wade has been arrested in Liberia.

Njamah disclosed this in a post on her Instagram stories on Monday.
