The Uyo Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State has ordered the closure of the vehicles spare part market popularly called Mechanic Village, Afaha Offot community, over a clash between the Igbos and the local dealers.<\/p>\n

The Council Secretary, Ubong Udofia, made this known in a statement titled \u2018Uyo Local Government Shuts Mechanic Village<\/a> of Crisis\u2019 made available to newsmen in Uyo on Friday.<\/p>\n

The statement read in part, \u201cFollowing the crisis that ensued today, Friday, September 30, 2022 at the Mechanic Village, Afaha Offot in Uyo Local Government Area, the Management of Uyo Local Government Council has ordered the closure of the facility indefinitely.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis decision of Council is to forestall further break down of law and order within the area.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Council Chairman, Dr. Uwemedimo Udo, has directed security officials to continue to maintain adequate security around the facility and the entire area until investigations are completed and normalcy returns\u201d.<\/p>\n

According to PUNCH, an auto mechanic at the market, Wisdom Effiong, said that trouble started when \u201can indigene arrived, opened his shop and swept the environment before arranging his wares\u201d.<\/p>\n

Effiong continued, \u201cIt was when he gathered the heap of wastes and tried to burn it a short distance from his shop that an Igbo trader confronted him and ordered that he should not burn the wastes near his shop\u201d.<\/p>\n

Wisdom added that the ensuing argument led to a fierce encounter between the duo, and eventually degenerated into a crisis<\/a> between the Igbos and the indigenous Akwa Ibom spare parts dealers.<\/p>\n

Another eyewitness, Akaninyene Bassey, said, \u201cThe Igbo man had used sharp object to pierce the Akwa Ibom man in the eyes, forcing angry reaction from the indigenes, who demanded that the culprit, who escaped after the incident, be brought out to be handed over to the Police.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was when the person could not be produced that the fierce argument degenerated into a free for all, with shops some looted before a combined team of Army and the Police was drafted in to restore calm and the market shut down indefinitely.\u201d<\/p>\n

The state Police Public Relations Officer, Odiko Macdon, when contacted said police officers have been deployed to the area to maintain peace and order.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
