Drivers protests, blocks Kaduna-Abuja highway over shooting of driver by police

There is currently a protest by commercial vehicle drivers on the Kaduna-Abuja highway.

The reason for the protest is on account of the alleged shooting of one of them – a commercial vehicle driver –  by the police.

The protesting drivers blocked both sides of the highway with their parked vehicles, making vehicular movement difficult. This has caused a heavy traffic jam on Kaduna-Abuja road.
