There was pandemonium at the popular Abakpa Market on Friday as traders scampered for safety following gunshots by suspected armed Robbers.
JOURNALIST101 gathered that the gunmen stormed the market at about 12pm and robbed a Point of Sale (POS) operative at ENTRACO Park area of the market.
An eyewitness who spoke to JOURNALIST101 correspondent, said “the gunmen robbed a POS shop and dispossessed the owner of his 3 POS machines, money and other valuables.”
The witness who doesn’t want his name in print said they armed robbers also made away with several phones that were being charged in the shop.
“They made away with more then 8 phones the owner of the shop charges for people.
“The robbers acted like people with information because the entire operation didn’t last up to 10 minutes and because the place is usually very busy, they fired several gunshots into the air to scare people away and make way for their exit.”
JOURNALIST101 gathered that nobody was injured in the entire incident but the owner of the sole POS shop that was robbed is counting his losses.
