FRSC roll out events to mark 2016 World FRSC Day

Date: 2016-11-18

The Federal Road Safety Corps, Kwara State, says all is now set for activities to mark the 2016 African road safety day and world day of remembrance for road traffic victim.

Sunday maku, stated this today in Ilorin during the prize giving ceremony to students who emerged winners of the road safety annual quiz competition for secondary schools in kwara state.

A statement signed by the Head of Public Enlightenment, Solomon Meremikwu, said there would be jumat service at General Adisa central mosque GRA on Friday while executive walk, visitation to accident and emergency unit of the UITH and candle light procession from FRSC base will hold on Saturday.

The event will be capped with an inter-denominational service at Saint James Anglican church GRA Ilorin on Sunday the twentieth November, 2016. FRSC called on the people to join hands and make kwara a crash free state.

Meanwhile, in another development the Nasarawa State National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW), says none of his members will purchase the speed limiting device due to its high price.

The state Chairman of NURTW, AlhajiSalihuAdamu, who spoke in Lafia today, said the union had pleaded with the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) to convince its selected vendors of the device to reduce the price, but to no avail.

According to him, the forty-five thousand naira amount pegged for the device is beyond the means of commercial drivers in the state. Adamu also said that the union had dialogued with the vendors in Benue and Nasarawa for commercial drivers to buy at a cheaper rate of five thousand naira, but no favourable agreement was reached.

The chairman assured that once the price was agreed at that rate, the union would compel its members to install them. The NURTW chairman also accused the FRSC of segregation, by compelling only commercial drivers to install the device.
