A fight broke out in the Iyana-Ipaja area of Alimosho local government in Lagos, Nigeria, between traders and motor park touts, leading to the destruction of wares and a big traffic jam. The fight was reportedly provoked by the touts' incessant demand for money from traders, which resulted in the molestation of the traders. The traders refused to pay and the touts retaliated, leading to a free-for-all fight. The police were able to restore peace to the area. A Muslim leader has called for unity between Muslims and Christians in the country, urging them to eschew violence and promote cooperation and understanding between the two religions.
