Pulse readers have voted and the polls are in.

This came up as a result of the Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Sa’ad Abubakar III's opinion over the right to arrest any traffic violator.

Speaking at the sixth FRSC Annual Lecture Series, themed"State Road Traffic Management Efforts: the LASTMAS Experience", the sultan stressed for the empowerment of the FRSC.

According to him, the FRSC should be able to arrest every type of offender.

“It is important for us to see how we can come up with a frame work where FRSC would be empowered to do certain things that are abnormal like arresting a big man who is driving dangerously.

I have never seen a road safety official stopping a government convoy for dangerous driving; why is it so?

He also called out VIPs to breaking traffic rules, such as over speeding and more.

When addressing the VIPs, I think it’s important for us to caution our drivers, especially government convoys that drive anyhow because they feel the roads are theirs,” he said.

Looks like Pulse readers share the same opinion.
