The Directorate of Road Traffic Services has inducted honourary and regular mayors in Abuja to expand the scope of volunteerism in traffic control and enforcement.
The FCT squadron leader and national coordinator of RTO/VIO mayors, Dr. Yusuf John Suberu, in his welcome speech, expressed optimism on the number of responses to participate in the volunteerism.
He described it as the marking of an important aspect of service delivery to society.
Bello called for more volunteerism from people on traffic-related matters.
According to him, the directorate and other vehicle inspection offices cannot do it alone but with the lending of hands, the difficulties could be eased.
He commended the honourary and regular mayors that despite their tight schedules, they agreed to render service to humanity particularly taking the complication of traffic control and enforcement.
The senator representing KOGI Central Senator Yakubu Oseni promised to raise motions and possibly sponsor bills at the senate on how to give legislative backing to volunteerism in traffic management and control going by the important role it plays in our lives.
A former presidential aspirant of the defunct Alliance National Party and also an honourary inductee, Mashood Shittu, implored personalities, youths and other professionals to render themselves for volunteerism going by how it has helped to ease traffic difficulties in advanced countries.
