Today clashes were reported at the Volks Bus Stop along the Lagos-Badagry Expressway. Security officers reportedly fired into the air to disperse the protesters. At least one person was killed during the violence.
The protest was reportedly held between motorcyclists, known as Okoda riders, and members of the National Union of Road Transport Workers following a disagreement over ticketing issues.
Lagos Police spokesperson, Adejobi Olumuyiwa, has announced, through his Twitter account, that normalcy has since resumed in the area and calm restored.
