Panic as miscreants beat up soldiers in Abuja market
There was pandemonium at the popular Banex area in the Wuse II district of Abuja on Saturday afternoon, May 18, as suspected thugs attacked military men in uniform.
The cause of the incident is yet to be ascertained however eyewitnesses say the soldiers were attacked after a disagreement with some persons at a commercial complex in the area.
A video of the incident posted on social media showed a group of young men arguing with two soldiers. The young men later broke into groups of three, attacking their targets fiercely.
Meanwhile, armed soldiers stormed the Bannex Plaza area of the incident to arrest the attackers, a development that has led to further pandemonium as traders and passers-by scampered for safety.
