A motorist, Adebayo Oluwatoyin, has described as beyond civil service time and commitment the combined effort, dedication, and enthusiasm of the FCT Directorate of Road Traffic Services (DRTS) Berger Area Command in sustaining the task against illegal parki I’mng at the Berger roundabout and bridge.
Oluwatoyin, a development analyst, made this known during a traffic interaction in Abuja.
The areas under and over the Berger bridge were known for illegal and indiscriminate parking, but today, one can be assured of passing through these areas without gridlock and arriving at their destination on time.
“There were times I strongly criticized the VIOs, but today, without guns, arms, or even koboko, these officers in white and black have been able to clear these areas. This shows there are also good sides to the VIO,” Oluwatoyin said.
My commendation goes to the DRTS director, his operations team, and the gentleman in charge of the Berger axis of FCT DRTS.
As a citizen, I think it is pertinent to periodically examine and assess the positive sides of our uniformed agencies rather than totally condemning them.
The essence of this release is to further motivate them for a job well done. And to kabu kabu, even though prohibited in the FCT, taxi drivers, and other road users, let us try to adhere to the laid-down rules.
