Commuters are said to be trapped on Abuja-Lokoja road owing to flooding of the area.
Adanu Moses, a witness, said traffic on the road is at a standstill.
He tweeted: “If you plan to travel the Abuja – Lokoja road and it’s not an emergency, you may have to cancel. The road is flooded so traffic has been on standstill for more 72 hours. Especially if you don’t have the heart to bike or walk across the flood.”

Communities in Kogi have been sacked by flood — with lives and property lost.
Yahaya Bello, governor of Kogi, had pleaded with the federal government to intervene and help save the situation.
