“This clearly indicates a general decrease in all parameters, with 9-per-cent reduction in the total road traffic crash cases and 25-per-cent reduction in fatality.

“The record also shows 22-per-cent reduction in the number of people injured, as compared to the figure in June,’’ Oyeyemi said.

The report said the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) recorded the highest road crashes with 81 cases, followed closely by Kaduna State with 61 cases.

It said that the other states with relatively high cases included Nasarawa State with 44 cases, Niger with 41 cases, Ogun with 39 cases, Oyo State with 36 cases and Ondo State with 33 cases.

The report indicated that Kaduna State, Niger, Bauchi State, Ondo State, Plateau and Jigawa recorded the highest fatality in July with 33, 24, 20, 20, 19 and 17 deaths respectively.

It added that more than 158 travellers sustained various injuries in the crashes.

“The Abuja-Lokoja road ranked second, with 40 cases and 15 fatalities, while the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway followed with 30 cases and 40 fatalities.
