In a move to ensure the free flow of traffic and maintain law and order on the roads, the Special Assistant to the Ondo State Governor on Emergency Response, Hon. (Prince) Wellington Oriade Adebawo, took to the field today, Wednesday, January 16, 2025. His mission was to put an end to the menace of timber trucks and other articulated vehicles obstructing the roads in the state.
The operation, which was carried out in major roads and highways across the state, saw Hon. Adebawo and his team working tirelessly to clear the roads of obstructing vehicles. The team was seen directing truck drivers to park their vehicles in designated areas, rather than leaving them on the roads where they could cause accidents or disrupt traffic flow.
According to Hon. Adebawo, the operation was necessary to address the growing concern of road obstruction by timber trucks and other articulated vehicles. He noted that the practice had become a menace, causing traffic congestion, accidents, and damage to the roads. He warned that the state government would no longer tolerate the practice, and that any driver found obstructing the roads would be dealt with accordingly.
Hon. Adebawo also used the opportunity to appeal to the drivers of timber trucks and other articulated vehicles to be more considerate and law-abiding. He urged them to always park their vehicles in designated areas, and to avoid leaving them on the roads where they could cause harm to other road users.
The operation was well-received by road users, who commended the state government for taking decisive action to address the problem. Many motorists expressed their frustration with the practice, noting that it had become a major source of concern for them. They praised Hon. Adebawo and his team for their efforts, and urged them to continue the good work.
As part of the operation, Hon. Adebawo and his team also engaged the drivers in a robust discussion, educating them on the dangers of road obstruction and the need to park their vehicles in designated areas.
