Taxi drivers in Abuja, on Wednesday, vandalised facilities at Dutse office of the Directorate of Road Traffic Services (DRTS) as their protest against the transport enforcement agency entered the third day.

Mr. Osil Samuel, the officer in charge of Dutse Command of the DRTS, said the drivers arrived the command at about 7:30 a.m. in more than 30 taxis. He said they entered offices and destroyed windows, furniture including the national and DRTS flags.
He, however, said no officer was injured in the demonstration that lasted for some minutes.
Meanwhile, the FCT DRTS Director, Danjuma Aliyu Garba (rtd), during a roundtable meeting with FCT transport union leaders, called on the taxi drivers to maintain law and order.

The FCT Chairman of the Road Transport Employers Association of Nigeria (RTEAN), Alabi Olrunju, condemned the actions of the taxi drivers and promised to caution his
