The police have arrested no fewer than five youths in Ikere-Ekiti in Ekiti State following the clash that greeted the protest over outrageous bills by men of the Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PCHN).
The youths, including commercial motorcycle operators, took to the streets on Wednesday and yesterday to protest what they described as “outrageous bills charged house owners by PHCN despite erratic power supply or even total blackout”.
For the two days, the protesters mounted roadblocks on Ikere- Ado and Ikere- Akure roads, disrupted traffic and forced trading and other commercial activities in the ancient town to a lull.
