Against news making round that the whole of Abuja went bloody, this was how it went on Abuja airport road today where protesters blocked the road along sauka-giri highway and also the Bill Clinton boulevard.

By 8:30am, a handful gathered at the overhead bridge but had to wait till around 11am before a number came to join from adjoining villages of Nwalenge, Sauka, Zamani and Bassa.

Although there was heavy presence of security personnel, the coordination amongst the protesters made it difficult for any to attack. People going to airport and others landing Abuja were forced to trek a distance with vehicles hooked at all ends of the highway.

By 6pm, it was a case of One Show, Two DJs..volunteers made the sun heat a child's play as they mobilized for sachets water and more importantly protesters were seen picking their waste and water sachets as soon as they see the road littered.

By 8:30pm before police will execute their plans of shooting sporadically later at night, protesters dispersed cordially on their own accord.

Yours sincerely covered the story real time from start to finish.
