A road safety seminar targeting youths and young adults, as well as the major road usage/safety operators in order to train them on the best globally accepted practises and reinforce same, will hold on Thursday, at the Nigerian Institute of International Affairs (NIIA), Victoria Island, Lagos.
A statement from the coordinator of the seminar and the brain behind Naija Car Lovers, an online automotive blog, Mr. Adrian Egonu, said the organisers of Young Adults Road Safety Seminar took into consideration that road crashes have been identified globally as a major threat to the lives and wellbeing of youths and young adults, especially in developing nations.
“These subsets of the population are the most active road users and also the most vulnerable to road incidents or mishaps, and urgent actions need to be taken to mitigate and forestall this ugly trend from gaining more traction…,” Egonu said.
The forum is being organised by Naija Car Lovers, in collaboration with the Federal Road Safety Corps, (FRSC) Lagos State Sector Command and Automobile Touring Club of Nigeria (ATCN), an affiliate of the FIA (Federation Internationale de l’Automobile).
