           He urged them to periodically educate their members  on the unions laws, and road safety regulations,  to help them to comport themselves on the road in order to prevent  accidents.

 

          He advised  them to always dress nicely, respect people who board their vehicles for the passengers to reciprocate the gesture.

        He assured them of the Assembly’s readiness to support them.

 

        The MCE disclosed that  work on the Interchange in the area  would soon commence,  and appealed to them to co-operate with his office and the contractor to execute the job to ensure the  free movement of goods and services.
