Pandemonium broke out in the Mushin area of Lagos as rival groups of area boys clashed in a fierce battle. The clash, which started in the early hours of the morning, left residents running for their lives. Eyewitnesses described the scene as “war-like,” with the sound of broken bottles, gunfire, and screams filling the air.
The area boys, armed with dangerous weapons, fought relentlessly, leaving a trail of destruction in their wake. “I was on my way to work when I saw the area boys fighting,” said a resident, who wished to remain anonymous. “I had to run back home and lock my doors. I was so scared.”
The cause of the clash is still unclear, but residents suspect it may be related to a longstanding rivalry between the two groups. The police have been deployed to the area to restore order.
