Okpe said that the accident, which occurred at 8:32 a.m., involved a Mazda bus, marked: XV 945 EPE and an unregistered Howo Sino truck.<\/p>\n

She quoted the FRSC Sector Commander in the state, Anthony Uga, as having admonished drivers to shun all forms of driving against traffic (one way) and exercise caution while driving in order to avoid endangering their lives and those of other road users.<\/p>\n
Uga reiterated the corps\u2019 continued commitment to creating a safer motoring environment and maintaining service delivery, even as he sought the cooperation of all and sundry.<\/p>\n
