A statement by the Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Okasanmi Ajayi, added, “A misunderstanding between two groups of tomatoes and peppers sellers in Mandate market led to a fracas.
“The Commissioner of Police Kwara State, Paul Odama, has dispatched a team of policemen to the scene; calm is gradually being restored. No casualty on the sides of the marketers or the police has been recorded as at now.” However, the Public Relations Officer of the Civil Defence Corps, Ayeni Olasunkanmi, said, “The issue at the Mandate market was an aftermath of a raid carried out by the Nigeria Police in the market due to complaints from the marketers that some shop breakers used to operate inside the market in the night.
But another report indicated that scores of people were injured as law enforcement agents and suspected shop breakers clashed at the Mandate market.All rights reserved.
