Reports say some angry residents of Gbagyi village in Abuja have blocked the convoy of Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo to protest alleged land grabbing by the Nigeria Military.
The residents who had earlier stormed the National Assembly to register their displeasure at the military forceful takeover of their land and killings of community residents, impeded Osinbajo’s convoy at Goza village, on his way to the airport.
The Vice President was forced to alight from his car to address the angry protesters after the security aides failed to appease the protesters.
