Police Kill Conductor - OscarNaija.
.Passengers travelling from Abuja through Okene in Kogi State have been stranded since 1pm yesterday, 20th January 2016. As i write this post at 2.30am today Thursday 21st January, 2016, i stand stranded among other passengers that have been so stranded since yesterday afternoon.
According to a trailer driver who gave his name simply as Malam Garuba, the cause of the road blockage is said to be associated with the shooting of a trailer driver by a police man at a check point around the notorious Okene by pass.
Information reaching us at our location indicates that there may not be movement on this one available road between Abuja and states in Southern Nigeria tomorrow as the shot trailer driver was allegedly denied treatment in the hospital his colleagues rushed him to at Okene as he was not escorted there by police men.
Meanwhile no police man is available to corroborate or throw more light on the issue as their story may just be different from the one painted by trailer drivers.
Some stranded paasengers spoken to say that they are praying fervently for relevant authorities to wade into the crises in order to arrest the situation.
