The Lagos-Abeokuta Expressway’s Itori area’s Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) Itori Unit Command has issued a warning to motorists not to bother their employees while they are performing their responsibilities.
On Monday in Itori, Ogun, the Unit Commander, Mr. Gbenga Okusi, issued the warning while speaking with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN).
Okusi emphasized the need to warn drivers who were going against the flow of traffic in the Ewekoro sector of the Lagos-Abeokuta expressway because they were persistent and harassed the staff even after being warned against it.
The unit commander noticed that driving against traffic was a contributing factor in some of the accidents along this axis, particularly the one on October 1 that resulted in two fatalities and four injuries.
“We are appealing to motorists to desist from driving against one-way at Ewekoro axis to save lives and property.
