Nigerian Highways To Get Surveillance Cameras by MrTAnonymous(m): 8:57am On Feb 17, 2013 |
The Federal Government of Nigeria has concluded plans to collaborate witha safety organization toinstall surveillance cameras in all the major highways across the country. This isin a bid to curtail violationof road traffic laws and ensure there’san eye out to see when criminal activities are being committedon our highways. A Memorandum of Understanding,MoU, would therefore be signed this week between the government and Risk and Accident Prevention Society of Nigeria, RAPSON in a move that will bring about theinstallation of 10,000 units ofsmart cameras and 13,000 sets of memorycensors on thenation’s highways. Chairman of RAPSON, Mr Ben Koko Odohofre while speaking ton newsmen in Abuja said the organization was set to employ 300,000personnel to work on the project. RAPSON is an organization with the objective to save lives andreduce the toll of injuries and death resultingfrom accident and violence on roads. According to Odohofre, a committee comprising the State Security Service, SSS, the Nigeria Police, Vehicle Inspection Officers, VIO, and Federal Ministry of Transport, Ministry of Works, Ministry of Justice and Federal Road Safety Commission, FRSC, would work with the organisation onthe project. The Chairman/CEO said the company as a player in the private sector,would source the funds whilegovernment would enforce the project. “Government would fine offenders whilethe percentageof money realized from the fines wouldbe shared between government and RAPSON. However government would provide its agencies which would drive the project. The police would arrest the offenders whilewe are asking the police for 5,000 men,” hesaid. http://www.informationng.com/2013/02/nigerian-highways-to-get-10000-surveillance-cameras.html 1 Like |

Only if the government can be truthful to themselves, i see it as another opportunity for the big boys in pdp to continue making excesses as far as money is concerned. Nice project indeed but, will not see the light of the say. 1 Like |
