The soldiers who mounted a check point at Dogarawa village, a few kilometres away from Zaria, were seen thoroughly screening motorists.
The activity of the soldiers began to take a heavy toll on motorists and commuters traveling the road as early as 6am. Many of them described the situation as tedious and unpleasant.
The situation was harder even for pedestrians around the area where the residence of the Shiite leader, Sheikh Ibrahim El-Zakzaky, is located, as security had been considerably tightened. These situations is no more than brutal dictatorship region of which it can not even be found under our late General Abacha.
