Breaking News: Armed robbers on rampage along Benin – Abuja Road

Dare-devil armed robbers are rampaging along the road leading from Benin, the Edo State capital, to Okene, Kogi State, and the federal capital, Abuja.

A news flash by Chris Kehinde Nwandu, National President of Celebrity Special Marshalls, said that the robbers are presently operating in the Aviele stretch of the road. Aviele is a popular junction town on the way from Benin to Abuja.

According to Nwandu, who is also a popular Nigerian blogger, “Report reaching CKN Nigeria from our reporter has it that armed robbers have taken Over Benin-Auchi-Okene Road at Aviele. NOW.”

Nwandu, who blogs as CKN Nigeria, urged people to “Rebroadcast” and to “avoid the route.”
