“Being a major expressway, the negative impact of the military checkpoint has been grave on the community, as well as all road users.”

The House of Representatives has urged the Inspector-General of the Police to direct the Commissioner of Police in Anambra to review the location of the police checkpoints in Ihiala Federal Constituency of the state.

According to him, road users have since been subjected to devastating, degrading and inhumane treatment by the security operatives manning the checkpoints in that area. According to him, headquarters of both institutions are located within the same axis, an area that ought not to be associated with a military checkpoint.

The House observed a minute silence for the souls of those that died in various accidents at the police and military checkpoints along the Onitsha-Owerri Expressway.
