Artisans and traders are protesting an eviction order. They claim to have federal approval, which they believe should allow them to remain. The order was issued by a state government, but the traders are pushing back against it.
The protest is taking place at Arepo Junction, where the artisans and traders are based. The state government involved is Ogun State.
Further details about the situation and the protest are available from The Punch, including the traders' response to the eviction order and any potential next steps.
