By Alhassan Haladu Yola.



To ensure the safety of lives and property of travelers, drivers have been urged to avoid overloading passengers and goods, as well as overspeeding and other unsafe practices, in order to improve road safety and enhance their performance effectively.


The Commissioner of Police in Adamawa State, Kabiru Umar Hassan, made this call while addressing drivers during an awareness campaign held at the main motor park in Jambutu, Yola North Local Government Area of the state.


The Commissioner explained that the campaign was organized to safeguard the lives and property of travelers on roads across Nigeria, noting that improved road safety would contribute significantly to national development.


He advised drivers to remain focused on their responsibilities and to drive carefully and calmly to ensure the safety of passengers and reduce the occurrence of road accidents. 


He further urged them to always adhere strictly to traffic rules and road regulations, emphasizing that compliance would help prevent accidents on highways.


In his remarks, the Chairman of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) at the Jambutu Motor Park, Malam Suleiman Hassan, expressed appreciation to the police for organizing the sensitization campaign, noting that the initiative would help improve drivers’ conduct and overall performance.


He assured the police command that the union would continue to work closely with relevant authorities to ensure that drivers comply with all driving rules and regulations aimed at reducing road accidents across the country.


As part of the outreach activities, the police command also visited the secretariats of political parties, including the All Progressives Congress (APC), African Democratic Congress (ADC), and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). During the visits, the Police Public Relations Officer of Adamawa State, SP Suleiman Yahaya Nguroje, advised youths to avoid actions capable of triggering violence, particularly as the election period approaches.


He encouraged young people to play active roles in promoting peace, unity, and responsible behavior within their communities in order to foster sustainable development.


The awareness campaign formed part of activities marking the 2026 National Police Day celebration, themed: “Partnering with the Community to Build Trust.”
