Members of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria on Monday clashed with soldiers in Nyanya area of the Federal Capital Territory.

It was gathered that trouble started when soldiers at a military checkpoint prevented the Shiite procession from coming to Abuja, leading to a clash.

Many of the INM members were said to have been shot in the incident.

A similar clash between soldiers and Shiite members led to the killing of two persons at Zuba on Saturday. – Punch
