Mohammed said the injured were taken to Orisun Ayo Hospital for medical attention.


He recalled that in recent times, apart from setting up an inter-agency joint task force to tackle the excesses of trailer drivers, the corps equally enhanced its enlightenment campaigns as well as ensured robust engagement of stakeholders, especially the various transport unions, in the bid to curb such ugly occurrences.


Meanwhile, the corps marshal, has said the corps is now ready to ‘bite’ and ensure that road traffic crashes are curbed ahead of the Eid-el-Kabir Sallah celebration.


Speaking yesterday in Abuja at a press briefing on the level of preparedness for the special operations during the Eid-el-Kabir, he said recent developments on the roads reveal some of the challenges confronting safe use of the highways which the corps has stepped up to confront on all fronts.


He emphasised that the corps would carry out aggressive enforcement, including conducting over 200 mobile courts’ operations to prosecute offenders.


He said over 743 patrol vehicles, 184 administrative vehicles, 92 ambulances, 23 tow trucks and 144 motorbikes are being deployed as part of the patrol logistics.
