Lagos airport road

It was pure pandemonium that took over the Murtala Muhammed International Airport road on Friday night after #EndSARS protesters took over the area.

The protesters took over the airport toll gate leading to the MM1 and MM2  local airports in Ikeja, blocked the toll gate and barred motorists from using the road.

Many motorists who were not aware of the blockade, were caught in the web of a huge gridlock as vehicles cannot access the area to Ikeja and other communities within the Airport.

Officers and men of the Nigerian Air Force, whose residence is located around the airport were forced to turn back and use  a longer route to access the  Sam Ethnan Air Force base on Airport road.

Details to come…
