FRSC Tackles Auto Crashes On AYA-Nyanya Expressway

The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has flagged off a strategic enforcement operation, code-named “Operation Safe Kugbo,” to enhance traffic flow and reduce the incidence of road crashes involving articulated vehicles on the ever-busy Kugbo outbound corridor of the AYA-Nyanya Expressway.

LEADERSHIP recalls that the FRSC established a high-level tactical team to assess and address recurring incidents of road traffic crashes on the AYA–Nyanya–Kugbo axis.

FRSC spokesperson Felicia Kalu said the initiative, conceived by the corps marshal and driven at the sector level by the commander, CC F.N. Theman, was in line with the provisions of the National Road Traffic Regulations (NRTR), particularly Section 223, as well as the FCT Traffic Regulations.

She said the initiative also aligned with the Corps’ 2026 Corporate Strategic Goal One, which prioritises safer road environments through proactive and preventive measures.

The operation focuses on restricting the movement of articulated vehicles and heavy-duty trucks during peak traffic hours to mitigate congestion and associated risks.

FRSC reiterated its commitment to deploying data-driven and people-centred strategies to safeguard lives and property on Nigerian roads.
