The Acting Corps Marshall of the Federal Road Safety Corps, Dauda Biu, has directed the establishment of mobile courts across the states of the federation including Akwa Ibom to try road traffic violators during the yuletide period.
“Owing to this development, our roads have always witnessed high vehicular traffic congestion, gridlocks, road traffic crashes, and the attendant loss of lives and properties.
“This situation is further worsened by the excesses of motorists along our corridors which leave horrifying nightmares in the minds of stakeholders, travellers, government, etc.
“I direct that mobile courts sittings be conducted throughout the period across the federation.
“All patrol vehicles, ambulances, tow trucks, motorbikes, and other operational equipment in the categories of radar guns, and all other operational logistics materials have been fully deployed for the exercise.â€
