Panic broke out at the popular Balogun Market on Lagos Island on Wednesday, after a violent clash reportedly left at least two people dead. A video captured the suspected assailant, stripped naked and reportedly lynched by an angry mob. The cause of the unrest has not been clearly established. While some eyewitnesses suggest the violence was the result of a cult-related confrontation, others alleged it stemmed from an inter-tribal dispute between Yoruba and Igbo traders. In the aftermath, shops were hurriedly closed as traders and passersby scrambled for safety.
