According to Aishat Alubankudi, a human rights activist who witnessed the scene and captured the fight on video, the incident which caused serious road blockage and congestion, happened at Muhammadu Buhari Junction along the Ahmadu Bello Way in the FCT.

It was gathered that the two police officers who happen to be in charge of controlling traffic, got into an argument following some money they had extorted from some motorists with one of them trying to cheat the other.

What started as an argument soon degenerated into a fistfight and all efforts by passersby and other motorists to separate the two combatants proved abortive as they went at each other with great gusto.
