The gridlock on the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway got worse on Tuesday as travellers returning from the Sallah celebration were trapped in traffic that lasted many hours.

A truck driver, Adamu, while lamenting the gridlock, said if he had the option of plying one-way, he would not hesitate to do it.

A man hawking sausage, Olawale Demola, claimed he sold three cartons since he resumed around 7am on Tuesday, adding that without traffic, he might still be struggling with a carton. He said, “The traffic is a counter-flow caused by those returning from Sallah inward and outward of Lagos, but we are doing the best we can. We were fully prepared for this. If you go to Kara where the situation used to be worse, you will see our men there, including the police and military men. Even our men from Lagos have joined.
