notes: 'Riots broke out between police and fuel vendors. Police were arresting fuel vendors in order to cut down illegal fuel trade- most fuel was illegally bought in Nigeria. During the arrests other fuel vendors responded by attacking police with machetes and firearms. Also vendors set tires on fire and lit a petrol station on fire. Two rioters died and over ten injured.'
