Business activities and vehicular movement were on Monday disrupted as bus drivers protested over an alleged harassment and extortion by members of the Edo State Public Works Volunteer.
Igbere TV reports that the commercial drivers in their numbers, marched through various streets down to the State House of Assembly complex.
They were received by the Speaker, Hon. Kabiru Ajoto, who promised to intervene in the situation.
When contacted by Igbere TV, the coordinator of the Edo State Public Works Volunteer, Muktar Osagie, denied the allegations.
He insisted that the task force would never condone any act of lawlessness.
