In the wake of the Nyanya bomb blast which occurred on Monday April 14th, which killed over 80 people, military checkpoints have been mounted at various strategic road junctions to double check human and vehicular activities in the FCT.
Motorists/workers say these checkpoints have grown to be a serious problem for them because they lose many useful hours in traffic with a number of them getting late to work and receiving queries.
Based on a report on Channels TV, residents in Abuja say their fear is in the way the military men carry out their search operations. They say the traffic opens them to a possible attack from Boko Haram men who are able to take advantage of the gridlock and strike again. They pleaded with the military to seek more effective ways to hold out their search.
