Always traveling, why can't he just remain in his state. What is he coming to do in Abuja when tomorrow is Monday.

No Okada around that side to carry am? Or no where for helicopter to land pick am up? Helicopter fit land untop of im jeep.

After four years hardly can you find anything to write home about in Kogi state. Infact I do not know which state is better developed between Kogi and Zamfara states.

You will be surprised to see helicopter landing from nowhere to pick him and some important aides off. That will prove to you all animals are not the same.

Mehn it was not funny being on that road. Started out a journey to Lagos from kaduna at exactly 5pm on Saturday night and we legit got stuck on that road with no movement for more than 5hrs. As I'm typing this stuff, my bus is just approaching Lagos from Ibadan. 30hrs from kaduna to Lagos.

Pele my dear. The traffic finally was cleared? How did you go thru.

After over two decades of democracy, you should know that the first thing the governor will do will be to buy a private helicopter and not necessary equipment and staff to handle things like this.

The poster really hate GYB. And surprisingly, most people also believed that it's the citizens that blocked Gov Yahaya Bello from moving in order to embarrass him. Many of us have people on this road and can easily reach out to them to the true position but alas we care not.

NEWSLokoja-Abuja Gridlock:

Gov Bello Spends Hours Controlling Traffic, Commends Commuters, Drivers!

Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello on Sunday evening, ed officers of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) and other security agencies in controlling the traffic on Abuja-Lokoja road which has held commuters on standstill for two days running. Governor Bello who arrived Jamata area of the state with his security men and some aides, spent over five hours directing the flow of traffic that has kept travellers at one point since Friday night. Gov Bello, Aides and security details controlling vehicles Our reporter gathered that the governor who arrived the scene at about 06.30pm in the evening called other security heads in the state to deploy more personnel to his security in controlling the traffic. Speaking to our reporter, Governor Bello said his action followed the brief he got on the traffic situation along Lokoja-Abuja road especially between Kpata in Lokoja down to Koto, Kogi/Kotonkarfe local government of the state from his security details on Saturday. The governor stated that he decided to visit the scene after another briefing on Sunday that travellers were still stranded on the road. ”I was properly briefed about the hardship the commuters have been going through in the last two days on this road. V I was told few officers of the FRSC were seen in controlling the traffic and that no vehicle could even move an inch. “I have been here since 06:45pm and this is 10:25pm with some of the officials of the FRSC and other relevant agencies. V The good thing is that vehicles are now moving, hopefully, if the commuters can sustain and maintain this orderliness we have established the gridlock will disappear because disorderliness, impatient are the major causes of this gridlock”, he said. The governor however criticised slow response to emergency road situation by the officers of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC). He noted that there was an accident involving two articulated vehicles on a single lane on the bridge while maintenance work was going on the second lane. He blamed the FRSC for not responding quickly in evacuating the lories considering the usual heavy daily traffic on the road. ”I understand that one of the lanes of the bridge has been under maintenance and travelers from Lokoja/Abuja were made to use only one lane; unfortunately, two articulated vehicles collided on the single lane resulting in this gridlock”, he said. The governor was seen commending commuters and drivers for their patience while urging that relevant agencies should deploy more personnel to ensure quick clearance of the road. V Some engers who spoke on the development said they were held up by the gridlock for several hours. They commended the governor for his presence at the scene, noting that without his intervention, no vehicle would have been able to move. At about 10. 45 pm, officers of the Nigerian Army, Navy, Civil Defence and vigilantee ed the governor and his security personnel in controlling the chaotic traffic. Lokoja-Abuja road is one of the most busiest roads in Nigeria as it connects the North to the South.
