Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has expressed concern over increasing attacks on officers and men during operations.

The Corps Commandant, Akinwumi Fasakin who stated this at the commencement of the Ember Months Campaign in Abuja, appealed to motorists to desist from the act.

The FRSC Corps Commandant underscored need for motorists particularly commercial drivers to always ascertain their health status.

Commandant Fasaki who represented the FRSC Corps Marshal Dauda Ali-Biu assured that the Corps would continue to come up with initiatives and policies on safety for all road users in the country.

FCT Sector Commander, Mr Muta’a Chorrie while speaking on the theme ‘Speed Thrills but Kills; Drive Responsibly and Avoid Overloading”, appealed to motorists to always abide by traffic rules and regulations.

The Sector Commander expressed worry over the spate of accidents along Lugbe-Airport Road as a result of non-compliance with traffic rules.

According to him, non-usage of pedestrian bridges along the Airport corridor contributes to death of road users daily by ”Hit and Run” drivers.

FCT Minister, Nyensom Wike who was represented by the Mandate Secretary Transport Secretariat, Ubokutom Nyah, said the administration would continue to upgrade road infrastructure to promote seamless traffic flow, pointing out that no fewer than 135 bad roads are being rehabilitated.
