The situation is developing as the Tanker Drivers reportedly blocked the Loko Oweto Bridge in Benue State.
They have been there since 8 am. The tanker drivers have barricaded the road following the killing of two of their drivers by soldiers because they allegedly refused to pay bribes.
The Federal Government of Nigeria completed the 2.055 km Loko – Oweto Bridge, a SukukBond-funded project which runs across river Benue in April, 2023.
The bridge is part of a road network that includes the 106-kilometer road from Oweto to Otukpo in Benue state and the 76-kilometer road from Loko, also in Benue state to Nasarawa state.
