There was pandemonium as Hausa and Yoruba Traders clashed on Friday at the Ibadan Bodija Market, Oyo State. It had to do with the Beans Sellers Association lingering matter, whereby some Yoruba Beans sellers were hacked to death sometime early June as they visited a market in the Northern part of the country in an attempt to purchase their wares. As a result, the Beans Sellers Association in Bodija had placed a ban on beans from the Northern part of Nigeria. However the few Hausa Traders in the market attempted to play smart by still importing beans, albeit, at a very exorbitant price...rising from N11,000 per bag to N20,000. Needless to say, the Yoruba traders decided to raise hell by damaging the trucks and produce in question. The Commissioner of Police, an Hausa man himself, had attempted to call a truce to no avail.
- God no vex...sometimes some people need to be given a taste of their own MEDICINE.
- It is no secret that the bulk of the foods produced in the North are consumed by Southerners.
- Dat is not to say we cannot produce such wares in d South...if d push comes to d shove.
- So make una WAKE UP o!!!
