The Police in Aba on Saturday intervened in the face-off between traders and men of the Aba Urban Renewal Task Force accompanied by  policemen

 The Area Commander in Aba, ACP Peter Wabara, gave the warning while addressing   traders and buyers at the Enyimba Stadium and adjoining areas

 Wabara said that no government agent had been ordered to collect tolls from the traders, who sell their wares on the roads, adding that traders and buyers should respect the law.

 Earlier on Saturday, some roadside traders fought men of the Aba Urban Renewal Task Force and policemen, who came to force them out of the roads.

 Some of the roadside traders, who fought the task force men, claimed that they were "Ngwa communities."

 They alleged that they came to destroy their wares for no cause, a trader, who witnessed the crisis said.

 Another trader, Mr Ifeanyichukwu Alozie recalled  that the traders had last Wednesday fought the men of the task force and burnt their vehicle and a tricycle they hired to work with.

 He alleged that when the task force team came again on Saturday with more personnel and were removing wares and tables on the roads and burning some of them, the traders resisted and fought them again.

 He said that it was at that point that the army and policemen were drafted to the area to help keep the peace and restore order.

 He urged Gov. Okezie Ikpeazu to warn the staff of the Renewal Agency to do their work with human feelings.

 The  Abia Police Public Relations Officer, (PPRO), Udeviotu Onyeke, confirmed that there was a fracas, which involved men of the Aba Urban Renewal Agency and roadside traders in Ahia Ohuru. He added  that nobody died in the crisis contrary to the claim from some quarters that some persons were killed.
