FRSC Warns Against Vehicle Abandonment On Rivers Roads

The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), Rivers State Command, has warned road users against abandoning vehicles on the road, particularly during the festive season.
The Rivers State Sector Commander of the FRSC, Salisu Galad-anchi, gave the warning in Port Harcourt, last Friday, while speaking to newsmen on the preparedness of the sector for safe travels during the Yuletide.
He said his men were fully on ground at every point in the state to ensure compliance with road safety rules.
According to him, officials of the sector have been fully mobili-sed towards ensuring that no vehicle is abandoned on any road within the state.
He disclosed that any vehicle towed by FRSC officials would attract a fine penalty.
“Any angle you are coming from, to enter Rivers State, you will see our men on ground. Whether you are coming from Bayelsa axis, or Aba, Akwa-Ibom or Owerri axis, you will see our men deployed there.
“We are fully prepared. Ambulances and men, both the volunteer personnel for the Yuletide, our medical personnel from our medical clinic have all been mobilised for the season”, he said.
Galadanchi appealed to road users, especially commercial drivers, to avoid reckless driving in the name of wanting to make high turnover during the festive season, adding that they need to be alive to make money.
According to him, any profit that one could not make in the last 11 months of the year can not be made within the few days of festivities.
