Hell was let loose yesterday and today in Kuje area of Abuja as motorcycle riders clashed with police officials the moment one of them stabbed a Federal Road Safety Official who confronted them.

The tension escalated when the police official deployed to ensure peaceful protest sprayed teargas to disperse them, an action that didn’t go well with the motorcyclists. At the height of it all, one of the bikers who stabbed a FRSC official during a confrontation called for reinforcement. The protesters quickly overpowered the police officials who later called for military backup to curtail the situation.
