The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), Kano command, has urged motorists to strictly obey traffic rules to prevent road crashes and protect lives and property.

The state FRSC sector commander, Masa’udu Matazu, made the call in a statement by the command’s public education officer, Abdullahi Labaran, on Friday in Kano.

Mr Matazu said the command deployed personnel and patrol vehicles across highways and key routes to ensure smooth traffic operations and promote compliance with safety regulations.
