FCT Gridlock: Army General pulls a gun on FRSC Operative

General News

Summary

The Federal Capital Territory FCT Ministerial Task team on Traffic Management has announced stricter measures to ensure route compliance in the face of continued intimidation of its operatives by armed uniform personnel. The development came following Sunday’s attitude of a Nigerian Army General who reportedly pulled his gun at personnel of the Federal Road Safety Corps FRSC who had flagged him for driving against traffic along the Nyanya-Mararaba route in the territory. On the first day our operation commenced in Nyanya, some officers of the Nigerian Correctional Service NCoS beat up the DPO of Karu for telling them not to park on the road. We need to brace up and ensure that they are off-road at such periods because aside from causing more gridlock, when their brakes fail, the casualties are always high and it is usually difficult to evacuate them amidst heavy traffic. “There was also a case of suspected theft the other day, where a tanker driver had emptied his contents somewhere else and then left only a little inside the tank and came to deliberately crash the vehicle at Nyanya.
