Mr Ahmed Mohammed, the Sector Commander in the state, announced this in a statement in Dutse on Thursday.

“In line with FRSC core values, the Unit Commander handed over N340,495 only and other belongings to the relatives of road traffic crash victims which occurred on Dec. 18, 2021, along Kazaure-Daura Road.

“The relatives were quite happy and praised FRSC for its transparency in handling the public property.’’

He urged travellers to always patronise designated motor parks and fleet operators for easy identification, in case of accidents or other emergencies.

However, he advised people to avoid night journeys, which he described as dangerous.

According to him, the FRSC discourages night journeys because they are associated with security risks including accidents.

“When an accident occurs at night, there can be delays before an emergency and rescue team can be reached to assist the victims,’’ he said.
