Hello good morning guys

So yesterday morning I got the news in my village in Imo State about lockdown in SE starting tomorrow (Friday till 10th)

So I left my village yesterday to Aba to buy my phone from slot opposite Abia poly, I headed straight to milvaton park to get bus ticket to Abj, they all told me to come in the morning (today)
I lodged so this morning I got there at 5:50am the crowd I saw was much, by the time I got to Abuja park as of 6:am 1st and 2nd bus(Sienna) already left, I got the 3rd bus while I was still there the 4th and 5th bus got filled too

People trying to beat the deadline to avoid being stocked at home

This whole thing isn't funny anymore
Businesses will be on standstill till 10th
Let me start by saying...the Abuja you are heading to, is it the one that's safe? Cos it's all over the news that b4 u enter Abuja, the recently mounted army checkpoints will make you stay in a traffic jam for 4-5 hours.

Now, why did soldiers mount checkpoints on all entry and exit points in Abuja? Becos Terrorists have surrounded the capital and have started launching attacks even with the present influx of army troops.

So why should lockdown be ur major concern, when you are traveling by road– which is quite dangerous on its own, to a place, that is equally as dangerous? Try nd get ur priorities right.
