FRSC, association conduct free eye tests for motorists

The Benue State Command of the FRSC has conducted free eye tests for more than 60 commercial motorists in Makurdi. The command conducted the tests in partnership with the Benue State Chapter of the Optometrists Association of Nigeria.

The exercise, described as part of the corporate social responsibility initiative of the companies, is to ascertain the state of the sights of the drivers to prevent accident.

The drivers, drawn from various motor parks in Makurdi, were advised to avoid taking stimulants that could affect their sights.

Addressing the drivers at the Wurukum Park, the FRSC Sector Commander in Benue, Mr David Mendie, said the initiative was in line with a directive from the headquarters of the FRSC.
