“Funny enough, they blocked the deputy governor’s convoy, hit one of his sparrows and damaged it in the process.

“The sparrow rider would have been knocked down save for divine intervention. This led to an altercation and a scene was created.

“The Brigadier’s convoy was ready for a showdown, but the deputy governor, being a law-abiding citizen, quickly applied wisdom.

“He sued for peace and appealed to his team to leave the scene.”
