Ogunjobi said that flooding of the expressway by heavy rainfall on Wednesday caused some motorists to drive against traffic, resulting in gridlocked.

Ogunjobi said that impatience and flouting of traffic rules would compound traffic situations.
He said that FRSC officers and other traffic managers were on ground to control traffic on the expressway and restore normalcy.
