Renowned philanthropic initiative, Durojaiye Relief Foundation in Partnership with Mikano Motors, organised a road safety initiative to sensitise motorists and pedestrians on road safety for a safer travel experience on Lagos roads.
The event which was supported by the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority, had in attendance, motorists and staff of both partners.
The campaign kicked off with a courtesy visit, from DRF’s Executive committee and LASTMA’s Mayor Commandant, to Mikano International’s Motors Division Headquarters, for a briefing of the planned activities for the road safety awareness campaign.
The briefing session was then followed by a two day road show, where members of the National Union of Road Transport Workers, Lagos chapter, and other road users were sensitized on the importance of obeying basic traffic and safety rules, such as using safety belts, avoiding distractions; not texting and driving, not driving while under the influence or fatigued among other vital road safety best practices.
To emphasise the importance of proper maintenance as the best approach for keeping vehicles in the best shape and ensuring the safe transport of passengers across the state, some motorists benefitted from a complimentary oil change as an added incentive.
“We are pleased to have the support of Mikano International for this road safety campaign and look forward to future successful collaborations,” the chairman Durojaiye Relief Foundation, Akanni Kazeem, said.
