The Lagos State Government, in conjunction with the Lagos Traffic Radio 96.1FM, has inaugurated an exercise to check incidents of drink-driving and resultant fatalities, especially during end of year festivities.
The Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Information and Strategy, Mrs. Kofoworola Awobamise, inaugurated the road show at the Lagos Traffic Radio office complex in Ikeja as part of the exercise.
Awobamise said that the event was coming at a crucial time of the year.
She said, “For me, this is a welcome advocacy, especially at this time of the ember months usually associated with accidents. Accidents do not come as a result of the name of the months, but as a result of careless driving. A lot of the careless driving we get is as a result of drink-driving
