FRSC Engages Redeemer’s School Pupils in Road Safety Education

The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) opened its doors to wide-eyed pupils from Redeemer’s Private School in a groundbreaking safety initiative.

Dozens of uniformed children buzzed with excitement as they entered the FRSC headquarters in Abuja last Tuesday morning.

Corps Commander B. Asekhauno personally welcomed the young visitors with a warm handshake and bright smile.

The Special Duties leader transformed complex safety rules into engaging lessons, making children laugh while they learned actively.

An officer demonstrated proper crossing techniques, prompting children to mimic his shoulder checks eagerly and accurately in the training area.

During the lively session, Commander Asekhauno explained that children serve as ideal safety ambassadors by reminding their parents to buckle up.

The training shifted to seriousness as officers shared alarming statistics about school zone accidents, emphasizing the importance of slowing down.

Teachers watched proudly as students asked insightful questions about traffic signs, demonstrating their quickly acquired traffic safety knowledge.

This innovative program represents FRSC’s visionary approach to creating lasting change. By planting safety seeds in young minds today, they’re cultivating responsible road users for tomorrow’s Nigeria.

As the visit concluded, beaming pupils received special junior safety officer badges. Their chattering about “being road heroes” filled the bus on the ride back to school, proof the lesson had truly hit home.

The FRSC plans to expand these engaging school visits nationwide, potentially reaching millions of young Nigerians. Their creative strategy proves that sometimes, the smallest students can drive the biggest safety changes.

For those wanting to support this initiative, FRSC encourages sharing their child safety materials widely. Remember – today’s curious children become tomorrow’s careful drivers, and every life saved starts with education.
