He said the very “junction is typically chaotic since no traffic lights are present to control the flow of vehicles. This is unsafe and unacceptable. It is regretful that an accident takes place before any substantial action is usually taken.”
He added that road accidents should not be attributable to failure on our path to provide the necessary amenities where they are needed.
He called on major stakeholders for roads and road safety to hasten their efforts to assess and install important road infrastructure for the safe usage of roads to town especially outside the capital.
