Soldier
Slaps Woman Into Coma.
One of the military personnel keeping watch at the popular
phone market, Banex Plaza, in the Wuse 2 area of the Federal Capital Territory,
has slapped a lady into a coma.
Banex Plaza has been shut down for the fourth day
following a free-for-all fight between traders and some soldiers on Saturday.
Our correspondent gathered that the lady who fell into a
coma on Tuesday was trekking on the barricaded road when she was stopped by
soldiers.
The soldiers accosted the lady who crossed a barricade at
the plaza.
However, after asking her some questions, one of the soldiers
slapped her heavily, and she collapsed.
She was immediately rushed into a van, which sped off the
scene.
It is, however, unclear if she was being taken to the
hospital for medical attention.
Meanwhile, traders have been counting their losses over
the military action, which they said could have been resolved without the
lockdown.
