Some youths of Asta community, a suburb of Makurdi early hours of Monday blocked the road that leads to Joseph Sawuan University of Agriculture, Makurdi, in Benue, to protest an attack by suspected herders.
The blockage of the road prevented the movement of particularly motorists.
A resident of the area who spoke to our correspondent said that the blockage was to vent their anger on the attack by suspected herdsmen on the community, which led to various degrees of injury sustained by people in the community.
The resident, who identified himself as Dave, said that the suspected herders invaded the community at about 1:00 am on Monday.
