A heavy downpour-induced flood has cut off a significant part of the Kano-Maiduguri Expressway at Malori-Guskuri, a community in Katagum local government area of Bauchi State.
ABN TV gathered that the development has rendered the road impassable, forcing motorists to use alternative routes to their destinations.
Speaking at the scene on Thursday, Bauchi State governor, Bala Mohammed, emphasized the importance of the road, which serves as a critical link between the North-West and North-East parts of Nigeria.
He appealed to the Federal Government to urgently intervene and repair the damaged part of the highway to ease the transportation of goods and services for the overall benefit of the citizens.
