FRSC gets new spokesperson, Stella Uchegbu

By -
(Nigeria) The Federal Road Safety Commission,  FRSC, has appointed Corps Commander Stella Uchegbu as the new Corps Public Education Officer to replace Assistant Corps Marshal Jonas Agwu, who is now Zonal Commanding Officer in charge of Zone RS7 Abuja at Gwagwalada.
Until her new assignment, Stella Uchegbu, was the Nodal Officer at the FRSC SERVICOM Unit at the Abuja national headquarters,  during which the Corps received commendable ratings for consistent compliance with SERVICOM principles.
The news spokesman hails from Abia State.
In her first meeting with staff of the Corps Public Education Office, Uchegbu expressed serious concern over the prevailing dominance of speed limit violation among road users in comparison with other causes of road crashes and reminded her colleagues of the need to raise the bar on the Corps’ sustained efforts to reverse the trend, adding that the FRSC  is fine-tuning modalities with the Standards Organization of Nigeria, SON, to commence a nationwide enforcement of the speed limiting devices on vehicles plying the nation’s highways.
She  noted that “it is an attitudinal issue as the federal government’s drive towards motorable roads has witnessed rehabilitation of major corridors of the highways. Unfortunately, people tend to disregard traffic laws bordering on speed limits and accelerate beyond recommended speed thus resulting to avoidable road crashes. If you notice, FCT ranks high among other states in terms of road network and traffic engineering and still maintains the highest on road crashes thus linking this trend to the attitude of motorists even in the face of numerous strategies put in place by the Corps to engender sound road culture in the FCT.”
