… to boost safety, professionalism
The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has introduced a renewed drivers’ package aimed at promoting safety and professionalism on highways in Adamawa.
Mr. Yahaya Adikwu, the FRSC Sector Commander, disclosed this to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Yola on Saturday, emphasising that the initiative seeks to enhance the driving profession.
“The difference between drivers and pilots is packaging,” he said. “A pilot presents himself professionally. When you board a plane, the pilot introduces himself, welcomes you, and provides flight details, including the journey duration.”
Adikwu revealed that the initiative has already commenced with Adamawa Sunshine Transport Company and will soon be extended to the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) and other unions.

“Drivers who adopt this renewed package will stand out and attract more passengers,” he stated.
He further urged drivers to remain vigilant and take their profession seriously for their own safety and that of their passengers.
“Believe in yourself. You are responsible for your safety on the highway,” he advised. “Every other driver is a potential risk. Stay cautious and avoid dangers to reach your destination safely.”
