Suspected armed robbers have taken over some sections of the Sapele-Benin road in Delta State using sharp objects to forcefully demobilise targeted vehicles before attacking the occupants.
Witnesses said that the hoodlums, on demobilising the targeted vehicle tyres, quickly jumped in and attacked the occupants, carting away valuables.
It was also gathered that the highway robbery suspects forcefully compelled many stranded commuters to part with unspecified amount of cash.
When contacted, most of the stranded commuters, who sought anonymity, expressed gratitude to God that the attack was not in the night or in the wee hours of the day.
The state Police Public Relations Officer, Bright Edafe, could not be reached for comments on the incident as of the time of filing this report.
