He said that though the Command had its fair share of setbacks last year, which affected both enforcement and relationship with the public, strategic collaboration with other agencies helped it to achieve massive results climaxing onto the end of 2021.

While anticipating effecient result delivery within the second quarter of 2022, Mr Irelewuyi said that he looked forward to crash-reduced Anambra roads and downward turn in traffic-related fatalities.

He sought the cooperation of all road users, remarking that achieving traffic excellence is a collective ambition of both the FRSC and the general public.
