The Federal Government has deployed armed soldiers and
mobile police officers to aid the breaking of logjam on the Abuja-Keffi road.
The gridlock, which surfaced as early as 5am today,
Thursday, has been persisting with no hope in sight.
However, on arrival, the soldiers who are giving support to
officials of the Federal Road Safety Corps have successfully stopped driving
against the traffic.
Both private and Government vehicles driving on one way are
now being turned back as part of the way out of the logjam.
At the moment, vehicles from Abuja going to other parts of
Benue have also joined the standstill having been blocked by those driving
against the traffic.
Also, heavy vehicles, including trailers have been cleared
out of the road.
DAILY POST correspondent observed that the soldiers and
mobile policemen are using minimum force to instill discipline in recalcitrant
passenger vehicle drivers.
