In addition about twenty patrol vehicles will be used, covering eleven routes spread across the entire State, and at least two tow trucks on standby in partnership with the State Ministry of Transport. Furthermore the Command is in collaboration with other Security Agencies like the Police, DSS and the NSCDC for prompt action where necessary. Twenty Junior cadre Officers are assigned for supervision and monitoring
He further said the patrol men will ensure clearing of any obstruction when it is reported or sighted and at the same time doing aggressive public enlightenment at various motor parks and the media
In the meantime the Sector Commander uses this period to advise the good people of Rivers on showing the good virtue of that which the Easter Period signifies. He said Easter is a time of sober reflection where believers are expected to worship and appreciate the miraculous death and rising of Jesus Christ rather than engaging in acts detrimental to Christianity. He warned that the Corps in the State will not tolerate motorists driving against the rules and regulations of road traffic Acts. He urged the citizens to obey the rules while being on the road especially to appreciate the good infrastructures of roads and bridges newly constructed by His Excellency Governor Nyesom Wike GSSRS, PoS.
