There is currently an heavy gridlock which has taken over Iwo road in Ibadan as #EndSARS protesters blocks the roads in the state this Tuesday morning resulting in serious traffic gridlock.
 
The #EndSARS protest have been ongoing for some days now in most State of the Nigeria. Though the Police IG have dissolved the sector (SARS) of the Force, but the protesters want it implemented physically.

It was gathered that the protesters arrived at the road a few minutes to 09 am.
 
According to a commuter, many travellers are stranded and held in traffic.
 
One of the protesters, identified simply as Akande, said, “It is our right to protest. We apologise to those affected by the gridlock, but we expect that they should be part of us. They are also exploited by policemen while travelling.”
 
Nigerians on Tuesday continued their protests to pressure the Federal Government to follow through on disbanding the Special Anti-Robbery Squad.
 
The Inspector General of Police, Adamu Muhammed, had on Sunday announced the dissolution of the FSARS in after widespread protest.
 
The protesters blocked highways in Lagos on Monday, demanding that the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), addresses them.
 
Buhari on Monday insisted that “disbanding of SARS is only the first step in our commitment to extensive police reforms”.
 
“The purpose of law enforcement and the purpose of policing is for the safety of lives and livelihood of Nigerians,” he said.
 
But protesters vowed to keep up the pressure, saying previous pledges to disband the unit and punish officers responsible for abuses were not honoured.

The innocent once are out there on the street risking their valuable time and life's fighting what BUHARI government had already addressed. Their SPONSORED plan won't work because the entire police force can never be eradicated. However, decent Nigerians cannot commute freely to their respective businesses because of the BANDITS blocking Lekki Toll Gate. Buhari government should please dispatch the military personnel's out there to calm the situation before it get UGLY.
