As early as 8am today, commuter going to Enugu from Abakaliki and those going to Abakaliki from Enugu were stuck as 2 trucks carrying fuel and a crane attempting to draw out a truck that fell into the river collide making it impossible for people to pass even those on legs. People resort to pay N50 to touts who blocked the river so that the can walk or swim pass the river to the other sides of the road. As at the time of writing this, 5:47 pm, people are still not sure of passing. I personally got to the point at 8:45 am and had to cue and wait this this time, it is a frustrating experience with nothing to tangible to eat except for very hot water being hawked around. Nawaoo

Chai!
Touts taking unfair advantage of crisis. Does the river created by God belong the touts? What justifies the touts collecting money from people? The touts do not even carry the travelers across the river. The touts that could not prevent the accident.

Touts indeed!
