The Anambra gubernatorial election has resulted in traffic disruptions in Onitsha, with the latest reports revealing that trucks and vehicles are stranded on the Niger Bridge, which has been cordoned off.
As voters turn out to decide who their next governor will be, access to the bridge was blocked to limit movement and ensure the safe transportation of personnel conveying election materials.
The above led to commercial trucks carrying goods standing still, resulting in temporary congestion.
