A disturbing video circulating online has sparked outrage after showing a group of secondary school students in uniform engaging in a violent street fight with machetes in Ibadan, Oyo State.

In the short clip, several students — believed to be from neighboring schools — are seen chasing one another while wielding dangerous weapons, including cutlasses and sticks, as terrified residents and passersby watch from a distance.
