Motorists plying the Lafia-Makurdi road are stranded around Mararaba area of Lafia Local Government Area of Nasarawa State due to a total blockade of the road by a group of irate youths.
Motorists coming from the Makurdi axis, as well as those passing from Abuja-Lafia, could not continue on their journeys.
The visibly angry youths said they undertook the action to protest against the submerging of their houses following a heavy downpour that began in the early hours of Friday.
Security personnel were deployed in the area but the youths insisted that the road would remain blocked until the Governor visited the area.
