Youths in the Riyom Community, which serves as the entrance to Jos, the capital of the Plateau state, have blocked the Jos-Abuja route in protest of what they claim are ongoing killings in certain parts of the region.
In protest of the uptick in killings committed by terrorists in their Communities, youths and community members have stopped major highways coming into and out of Jos, according to the Middle Belt Times.
Many vehicles and travelers were reportedly being stranded along Mararaban Jama’a as a result of the development, and many commuters have been forced to turn around and take an alternate route.
