Gunshots were recorded this morning when rival factions of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) clashed within the Obalende axis of Lagos Island.
The fracas which started around 8 a.m saw several persons who were heading for work scampering for safety.
The clash also left some property including buses vandalized while pedestrian and vehicular movements were restricted in the area.
