The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), Kebbi State Command, says it is working closely with all relevant stakeholders to ensure no road accident is recorded during the Eid-el Fitr period.
The Sector Commander, Yusuf Haruna, disclosed this in an interview with our correspondent in Birnin Kebbi on Saturday.
“In a bid to ensure seamless 2022 Eid-el Fitr celebration, the FRSC RS10.2, Kebbi state Sector Command, has deployed personnel, patrol vehicles, and ambulance across the state.
“This is to ensure free vehicular movement and safety of all categories of road users during the Eid-el Fitr celebration in the state.”
He also warned motorists against dangerous driving, over-speeding, the use of cellphones while driving, and other actions that contravene road traffic rules during the period.
He said that there would be massive deployment of both Regular and Special Marshals for the special patrol operations being organised to control traffic and check the excesses of motorists during the period.
According to Haruna, the FRSC remains committed to ensuring the safety of lives of motorists and passengers on the highways.
“Remember, only the living celebrate,” the commander said.
