Delta and Anambra State Governments have agreed to free traffic on the Niger bridge, which was closed to enforce the ban on inter-State movement in order to curtail the spread of the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19).
TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) reports the State Governments reached the agreement on Monday, with condition that guidelines laid down to contain the spread of the COVID-91 would be strictly enforced on the bridge.
Recall an iron barricade was reportedly built at the Asaba-end of the Niger Bridge reportedly on the orders of Governor Willie Obiano, the Governor of Anambra. The barricade was reportedly pulled down at the weekend by youths in Delta.
It was gathered that the development necessitated the meeting where the two governments resolved to jointly police the Niger Bridge to curtail the movement of ‘strange persons’.
