The Federal Road Safety Commission in collaboration with the Road Safety Advisory Association, Special Marshal Unit 9, Surulere, held an ember months enlightenment campaign for motorists.

The Assistant Corps Commander, Surulere, Gregory Drambi said the campaign became necessary because of the approaching festive seasons.

He urged drivers to give consideration to other road users.

The campaign tagged Remember Your Life is in Your Hand began from Ojuelegba to Funsho Williams Avenue through Costain Roundabout to Bode Thomas Street.

The Public Enlightenment Education Officer, Special Marshal Department, Bashorun Olaide said the Road Safety Advisory Association was ready to assist in reducing crashes during the festive period.

The Unit 9 of the Special Marshal is working tirelessly through public enlightenment to reduce crashes in designated areas,’’ Olaide said.
