At least two persons have been reportedly shot dead in a clash involving aggrieved members of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria (IMN) better known as Shi’ites and officers of the Nigeria Police Force (NPF).

Yaahoo Journalist learned that the protesting Shi’ites who were marching on the streets of Abuja set a sub-station of the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) at the federal secretariat ablaze.

It was learned that two vehicles of the agency have been consumed while firefighters are currently battling to put out the inferno.

Yaahoo Journalist gathered that the protesters set the sub-station ablaze after the police disrupted their protest.

A report by TheCable says the protest, which began from NITEL junction at Wuse zone 2, was disrupted by armed policemen who cordoned off the road leading to the national assembly and three arms zone.

The report said bullets were fired at the protesters as they advanced towards the Eagle Square. A journalist was said to be among those shot but TheCable could not independently verify this as of the time this report was filed.

“I had to park my car and run for safety,” a resident told TheCable.

TheCable reporter counted at least two corpses at the scene of the attack.

Meanwhile, Yaahoo Journalist understands that the Shi’ites members had hit major roads within the city to protest the continued detention of Ibrahim El-Zakzaky, their leader. The clash with the police occurred during this process.
