The Imo State Chapter of the, Federal Road Safety Corps, Imo State Command, has distributed additional 20 towing vehicles to various formations in the state for the immediate removal of all abandoned vehicles on the highways.

The Sector Commander, Joseph Aremu, said this during the 2017 special marshall investiture held in Owerri, the Imo State capital, on Saturday.

Aremu stated that out of the 20 vehicles, one had been stationed in Owerri for 24-hour operation in view of the gridlock witnessed in the city.

He said, “We have arranged this in such a way that the special marshals will now join hands with us to respond to any emergency at any point in time.

“Drivers should avoid speeding, overtaking at dangerous spots or using mobile telephones while driving and driving without seatbelts. Those who drink must not drive and those who drive must not drink.”
