- Stephen Godonu:
Alhaji and the FO1 area of Kubwa on Tuesday morning.
The troops were said to have shot into the air to disperse the #EndSARS protesters who had gathered to begin the day’s protest.
While passers-by scampered for safety, residents who were still in their homes immediately shut their doors.
Motorists and commuters on the Bwari-Dutse Alhaji Road were stranded by the ensuing traffic jam.
The protesters had erected a barricade at the Sokale roundabout and Winners road in preparation for the rally when the security operatives aborted their protest.
Findings also indicate that the Kuje axis of the Federal Capital Territory has again been blocked by #EndSARS activists barely 24 hours after they barricaded the road and were chased away by suspected hoodlums.
Our correspondent reports that Kuje residents are currently struggling to beat the traffic gridlock in the area.
