The President of the Court of Appeal, Justice Monica Dongban-Mensem, has appealed to Nigerians to always show concern by assisting accident victims to rescue them from the cold hands of death. Dongban-Mensem, who is a Special Road Marshal, made the appeal on Thursday during the 13th annual conference of the Kwapda’as Road Safety Demand Foundation.
According to her, the campaign for road safety has been ongoing for 13 years in memory of her son, who was killed by a hit-and-run driver. She lamented that her son was left to die bleeding. According to a News Agency of Nigeria report, she said, “We want people to remember that if today there is a road victim and they are not the ones, they could be the ones next; it could be their relatives; it could be the people that they are concerned about.
Nigerian roads, she observed, are overused because they remain the only means of transportation in the country. Dongban-Mensem stated that when one provides information, dares to come out, and goes to court to give evidence against those who misuse and undermine the laws, they are participating in the administration of justice and ensuring that roads are safe.
