Property worth several millions of naira, including cars, were also destroyed during the violent clash that engulfed Adetola and Pako within the council area.

The fracas was attributed to a mere disagreement between two rival groups. The clash was said to have spread towards the Enitan, Adefowope and Willy Omiyi Streets in Coker Aguda Local Council Development Area.
