Politicians are intimidating our personnel in Kaduna – FRSC Sector Commander
Sector Commander of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), Kaduna State Command, Kabir Yusuf Nadabo, has disclosed that some officials of the agency have been continuously intimidated by politicians in the state.
Speaking at a media parley at the Secretariat of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ), Kaduna State Council over the weekend, Nadabo asked why a local government chairman would be telling officials of the agency where to patrol.
He said;
“I can no longer sit down and be intimidated by some people. Imagine a local government chairman telling my patrol team to stop patrolling on the township roads, but to only operate on the highway. This shows how far they are taking things. If you ask FRSC to keep off the township roads, what if an accident happened then? Who do you call to come and assist the victims? I am saying it again, that nobody will intimidate me because I am here to serve the people of Kaduna State. The state traffic agency is not under my control, but courtesy demands that we work together in the interest of the people.”
Nadabo who warned leaders against mixing politics with the safety of the lives of Nigerians, also claimed that the state traffic agencies, especially in Kaduna, Kano, and Lagos, were all focused on revenue generation, which is contrary to the norms of creating state traffic agencies.
