Many commuters who were rushing to resume work for the new week, had to be rescued by people who used unmarked vehicles, known in local parlance as ‘kabukabu’. The commercial drivers took their protest to the premises of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) where their leader, Richard Owali, said the protest was informed because “the government told us that the ticket we will pay daily is N400. NURTW N100, RTEAN N100, local government N100 while state government also collects N100 then if you are moving to another local government area, you pay extra N100. The government did not tell us that these lions and tigers will come back to the road again.
