Edo state Governor, Godwin Obaseki voiced out his displeasure with the nonchalant attitude of alot of Nigerians at accident scenes, describing it as `worrisome’.
Speaking in Abuja on Tuesday at the commencement of activities to mark the 2017 African Union Road Safety Day/ World Day of Remembrance for Victims of Road Traffic Crashes. “When road crashes occur, prompt response of various relevant agencies should be required to rescue and evacuate the victims for optimal medical care.
“But there is a trend we are observing: I ran into a road crash, very fatal one, a couple of months ago.
“Rather than people rushing to aid victims, you had people standing by and using their cell phones to record those crashes.
“I found that worrisome and it is something we the agencies should take on and encourage and educate people that we must be first responders.
“When we arrive at accident scenes, the first thing we should do is to go out there and try to assist, not to make it incident for entertainment,’’ he added. posted by ConnectMe posted by
