Some youths in Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital on Tuesday, ran out of patience and resorted to violence over their inability to access the new naira notes and petrol.
The crisis was reportedly ignited at a branch of GTbank in the Asero area of Abeokuta, where customers had queued since 4am but could not withdraw cash.
It was gathered that the protesters had attempted to attack the GTbank but they were repelled by the Police following a prompt intervention.
On Tuesday afternoon, the protesters blocked the busy Obantoko road, setting bonfires on the main road.
