The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) have blocked the road leading to the Murtala Muhammed Airport in Lagos State to protest the lingering strike by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).
The students, protesting the seven-month strike, blocked a section of the access road to the International airport on Monday morning, September 19.
This caused gridlock as vehicular movement in and out of the airport was stalled.
There was heavy police presence at the scene but this did not deter the protesting students.
Some stranded passengers resorted to carrying their luggage on their heads and trekking to the airport in order not to miss their flights.
The students had last week blocked the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway and the Ibadan-Ife Road.
