The National Chairman, Petroleum Tanker
Drivers, PTD, Comrade Salimon Oladiti, has enjoined members to desist from
night journey and abide by the ban placed on such by the union in the interest
of the general public and as part of measures to further ensure safety of
citizens.
He gave this counsel in a statement made
available by the union’s publicity secretary, Comrade Atanda Adebayo, saying
the call became imperative following a major auto tragedy that was averted by
the combined efforts of the Lagos State Emergency Management Agency and the Lagos State Fire Service.
Oladiti, while commending PTD
members for complying with the ban on night journey, described the level of
compliance as “satisfactory,” adding that few bad eggs would be dealt with appropriately.Meanwhile, as part of moves to further ensure safety and sanity on the road, Oladiti announced plans by the association to conduct intensive training for about 4,000 members in the first quarter of 2017.
