December 16, (THEWILL) – The House of Representatives on Thursday asked the Inspector-General of Police and other heads of security agencies to immediately dismantle all road blocks from Lagos and Abuja to the Southeast.
The lawmakers said the action will facilitate free flow of traffic and relieve the pains and hardship of motorists and other road users travelling during this festive season.
The lawmakers also asked the police to immediately disband all checkpoints at the Onitsha head bridge, which is creating heavy gridlock.
