… As Niger Protesters Block Highway

President Muhammadu Buhari on Monday met with the Chairman of
the Nigerian Governors’ Forum (NGF), Dr Kayode Fayemi, in the
Presidential Villa, Abuja.

The president also met with the Chairman of the All Progressive
Congress (APC) National Caretaker Committee and Yobe State
governor, Mai Mala Buni, and the governor of Niger State, Sani
Bello.

Although the details of the meeting were yet to be disclosed as
at the time of filing this report, it was believed that the
governors met with President Buhari over the security situation in
Niger State.

Hundreds of protesters had on Monday blocked the Abuja-Kaduna
expressway in Gauraka town, protesting rampant kidnappings in the
area.

The blockade on the road caused traffic gridlock that extended
few kilometers along the Abuja-Kaduna expressway.

The governors declined to speak to the media when they were
approached after the meeting.
