While on the other hand, motorists from Abuja/Abakaliki going to Aba/Port Harcourt are advised to take Abakpa Junction (82 division) -new haven junction by Otigba roundabout to Okpara Square and proceed to Enugu/Portharcourt dual carriage way, new Kenyatta market (army checkpoint) and continue to Aba/PH.

Persuant to the need to ensure that motorists are not caught up in avoidable traffic gridlock, the Corps marshal, Dauda Alli Biu admonishes drivers of all categories of vehicles using that route to adhere to the aforementioned alternate roads and maintain all road traffic rules and regulations for safe arrival.
