A yet-to-be-identified person has died in the Ojota area of Lagos State.
A source told FIJ that two groups, suspected to members of the Oduduwa Peoples Congress (OPC) and Yoruba Nation agitators, clashed in the early hours of Monday, resulting in one casualty.

The source said police arrived the scene and shot teargas to disperse the crowd.
“Ojota is up in smoke,” a source told FIJ. “Police are shooting teargas, and one person is dead. There was a clash between OPC and Yoruba Nation.”
When FIJ called Benjamin Hundeyin, spokesman for the Lagos State Police Command, he said he did not have specific details but was aware of the clash and the police were on ground.
