GOVERNOR Godwin Obaseki of Edo State has introduced community service, as part of penalties for road traffic offenders in the state, particularly Benin City, the state capital, notorious for uncoordinated driving by motorists until his predecessor, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole established Edo State Traffic Management Agency, EDSTMA.
Macaulay explained: “This is a new initiative and it will continue. Later, we will introduce other measures like impounding vehicles and paying fines. This is the first time we are embarking on this.”Mr. Austin Nfere, Monday Ibuedefe and Endurance Joseph are among the motorists, who just completed their community service.
The agency’s Public Relations Officer, Roland Owolabi, said the innovation was part of the vast experience the Managing Director of the Agency, Dennis Oloriegbe, has garnered over the years as traffic personnel before the state took him from the Lagos Traffic Management Agency .
