ASAGBA OF ASABA KINGDOM CALLS ON THE FRSC TO FIND LASTING SOLUTION TO THE INCESSANT GRIDLOCK AT THE NIGER BRIDGE                                                                                                                                             25-12-24

By Sadiq Aminu                                                                   The Asagba of Asaba Kingdom in Delta State, Professor Epiphany Azinge has called on the Federal Road Safety Corps, FRSC to find lasting solution to the incessant gridlock at the Niger Bridge of the Asaba-Onitsha interchange, during Christmas and New Year festivities.

The Asagba of Asaba made the call in His Palace while receiving the FRSC Corps Marshal, Mallam Shehu Mohamed during the ongoing nationwide end of the year special operations.

The Royal Father, expressed worry that the gridlock always disrupted easy passage of vehicles, thereby delaying the motoring public for hours at the Interchange.

He pledged to mobilise Traditional Rulers on advocacy Campaigns to enhance the operations of FRSC towards making the roads safer.

Earlier, the Corps Marshal of the Federal Road Safety Corps FRSC Mallam Shehu Mohammed commended the Asagba of Asaba Kingdom for his support on effective traffic control stressing that his candid advice would continue to guide the Corps to achieve its mandate.

The Palace high Chiefs were also on ground to welcome the FRSC team and prayed for peace and Unity in the country.

Meanwhile, at the Asaba-Onitsha-Niger Bridge, the Corps Marshal cautioned motorists against reckless driving and urged them to give maximum cooperation to the officers and men deployed for traffic control at the corridor.

Controlling the moving traffic on the Onitsha Niger Bridge, the Corps Marshal commended the FRSC personnel who were on late patrol at the corridor, assuring them that the management would continue to place high priority on their welfare.

To ensure smooth vehicular movement at the Asaba inter change, the Corps Marshal Mallam Shehu Mohammed, the Anambra State Sector Commander Alexander Joyce and Delta State Sector Commander Fredrick Ogidan controlled traffic for over three hours to enable travellers reach their destinations safely and on time.

Speaking on the traffic situation across the country, The Corps Marshal said that though there was a high volume of traffic at some critical corridors, there were isolated cases of road accidents recorded.

He pointed out that the only fatal road accident occurred in the early hours of today at the Akure – Ibadan highway, where three passengers died in a vehicle from Kaduna.

He reiterated that the Corps would continue to advise motorists to desist from night journey.

According to him, visibility at night is bad and also difficult to render rescue operations .
