The Federal Road Safety Corp has said that it has arrested over 13,000 illegal motorcycles riders and impounded about 20,000 motorcycles across the country in August.
Addressing
journalists in Abuja on the preparation for accident free operations in the
ember months, acting FRSC Corp Marshall, Mr Dauda Biu, noted that it has also
uploaded over 100,000 into the national vehicle identification database.
According
to Mr Biu, the corps is set to carry out safety awareness campaign in public
places such as the motor parks on the need to avoid overloading and over
speeding during the ember months.
“Part
of the efforts we have put in place towards achieving a robust data collection
is the ongoing special enforcement operations on unregistered motorcycles which
commence at the beginning of August,” Mr Biu said.
“The
clampdown, which is a timely response to the directive issued by the Presidency
through the office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, will
no doubt boost national information and enhance intelligence gathering and
criminal information amid the ongoing fight against insecurity in the country.”
