The Corps Marshal of the Federal Roads Safety Corps (FRSC), Dauda Ali Biu, has ordered an immediate clampdown on all rickety vehicles across the country.
The order followed a trending video of an old vehicle with mechanical issues plying the expressway with one of the back tyres off.
In a statement by the corps public enlightenment officer, Bisi Kazeem, the FRSC boss ordered an immediate clampdown on the vehicle and the arrest of the owner.
According to the statement, the vehicle, with Lagos registration number AA07AG, was not only old but was plying the highway with just three worn-out tyres.
