Floods overrun Abuja-Lokoja road



Floods overrun Abuja-Lokoja road
Floods have taken over the Lokoja-Abuja road- the major access to the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) – the seat of power.
The River Niger has overflowed its banks, submerging the road and many homes. The floods caused a chaotic traffic on the road, with vehicles forming long queues on both sides.
The queue at the Lokoja end of the road has extended to Obajana village, about 15 kilometres drive to the Lokoja city centre. Many passengers are stranded.
