MASSOB To Train Members On Traffic Control

The Movement for
the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB), has promised to train 500 of its members for traffic control in Onitsha, Anambra State during the Christmas season.
MASSOB’s Director of Transport, Chief Charles Oputa, told newsmen in Onitsha that the training would take place in the first week of December.
“MASSOB feels very concerned about the traffic congestion recorded every Christmas period in Onitsha and its environs and we do not want it to happen this year.
“This is why we decided to conduct training for our members who will man all the busy roads and strategic points,’’ Oputa said.
He advised commercial drivers to always comply with traffic rules to avoid loss of lives and delay.
Oputa said the movement would collaborate with traffic control agencies in Onitsha to achieve the goal.
Onitsha usually experiences daily traffic jams during the season due to the influx of traders to the various markets in the town.
Hundreds of commuters annually spend days on the Niger Bridge during the peak of the Christmas season due to traffic jams.
