Dozens stranded as Anambra govt erects giant gate on Niger Bridge (video)

The Anambra State government has closed the state’s section of the River Niger Bridge by mounting a giant gate at a spot on the bridge.

The government reportedly took the decision to check the violators of the inter-state travel ban.

In a video that had gone viral on social media, many people were left stranded on a particular section of the bridge.

The Federal Government had last month banned inter-state travel as part of measures to check the spread of COVID-19.
