Splash FM reporter, Abiodun Adewole, on Thursday, revealed that the young lady who was hit by a stray bullet, is among the victims who were killed in the violent clash including a pregnant woman and others.
He said the lady died after spending days at the hospital for treatment and surgery.
The violence which happened last week began following the refusal of the meat sellers/butchers to relocate to a new abattoir prepared by the government who had earlier sought court backing to remove them.

Trouble started when butchers allegedly confronted the policemen deployed to enforce a court order for sealing off the Bodija abattoir. This led to the mayhem, which grounded business activities in the market.
