On January, 7, 2016, Makinde Adesina 29, Tanimona Dele 38, both traders and another of their friend, Nosiru Ganiyu, left their homes in the early hours of the morning. 

Their plan was to quickly reach the Ile-Epo Market, located along Oshodi- Abeokuta Expressway, Abule Oke-odo area of Lagos, where they used to trade, to make early morning sales. 
 The traders had many plans for that day, but part of it was definitely not to get shot, inflicted with machete cuts or to be admitted into hospitals, battling awful pains and praying to live.
Presently, Adesina and Dele are battling to stay alive at Obitoks Hospital, Ile-Epo, while Ganiyu was referred to the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital Ikeja (LASUTH), where a surgery was expected to be performed on him.
 The crisis in the market is a tussle over revenue collection which had pitched market leaders with the Agbado Oke-Odo LCDA, with the traders insisting that the council cannot use the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) members to collect revenue in the market, since it wasn’t a motor park. 
Trouble started last week, after some members of the NURTW in the area, with policemeninvaded the market with guns and other dangerous weapons and unleashed hell.
