In the wake of the Naira redesign, and the attendant scarcity, angry Nigerians on Thursday, took to the highway at Mowe, Ibafo and Magbowo, blocking the dual carriage way.
They extended the protests, which had rocked some city centres over the biting cash scarcity, to the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.
Early travelers such as Lagos inward and outward-bound, were stranded for hours.
Some of the protesters erected barricades and set fire to used tyres, impeding passage for motorists.
Similarly, protesters blocked the Benin-Ore-Lagos highway at Odigbo Local Government Area of Ondo State.
The protesters were peeved that no bank in Ondo State has been paying out money since Wednesday.
