The Ekiti State Rural Access and Agricultural Marketing Project (RAAMP) has commenced a road safety sensitization campaign in schools and communities along 12 recently completed rural roads to promote responsible road use and prevent avoidable accidents.

The exercise, led by the Project Coordinator, Hon. Sunday Adunmo, is aimed at educating schoolchildren, motorists, traders and other road users on basic traffic regulations, road signs and the proper use of road furniture.

Speaking during the exercise, Adunmo emphasized the need to sensitize pupils, particularly those living and schooling along the newly constructed roads, on the importance of road safety.

He noted that although the improved roads would enhance transportation and economic activities in benefiting communities, their safety benefits could only be sustained through responsible use by motorists and other road users.

According to him, good roads alone cannot guarantee safety, as the condition of vehicles and drivers’ understanding of traffic signs and road facilities are equally important. https://www.sparrowcom.net/2026/11/12/raamp-takes-road-safety-campaign-to-ekiti-schools-targets-accident-prevention-on-new-roads/
