A gridlock ensued on Saturday morning on Sagamu-Ore-Benin Expressway as security agents blocked the Ondo-Ogun and Ondo/Edo borders of the highway.
The security agents were enforcing a total restriction order by the Inspector-General of Police, Mr. Mohammed Abubakar, as part of measures to ensure a hitch-free governorship election in Ondo State.
Witnesses said a large number of inter-state transport buses were held up at both borders on Saturday morning.
The situation may not be different on the highway linking Lagos with Abuja through Ondo State, although PUNCH has yet to receive any report from there.
The state is a major point linking the South-West with the North, South-South and South-East by road and sea.
It shares borders with Ogun, Edo, Osun, Ekiti and Kogi states.
More details later.
