Never Drive On the Wukari-Jootar Federal Highway in Nigeria
Pastor’s Wife Shot Dead in Taraba State, Nigeria
Morning Star News | November 30, 2023Attacks along the Wukari-Jootar federal highway at the intersection of Taraba and Benue states have been relentless, said Taraba resident Emmanuel Yakubu.
“Despite the heavy presence of military and police checkpoints along this route, incidents like these persist unchallenged,” Yakubu told Morning Star News in a text message. “Numerous citizens have faced similar ordeals. These occurrences demand immediate action from the appropriate authorities.”
Yakubu called on the military and the police to urgently intervene.
I don’t care how urgently you need to get from Wukari to Jootar. Is it worth your life?
You’re welcome.

Wukari-Jootar Highway in the sunshine
Where the days are longer
The nights are stronger
Than moonshine
You’re gonna go I know
There’s more in the air than alligator lizards…
Were the names changed to protect Chicago?
