The Abia State Sector Commander of the Federal Road Safety Corps, Meshach Jatau, says the command will clear abandoned vehicles off the major roads in the state to ease vehicular movement during the 2019 general elections.

He announced this at a national capacity building training on election duties for FRSC staff members in Umuahia the state capital.

He said the exercise is necessary in order to check persons, who might use such vehicles to block roads against those conveying electoral materials and personnel during the polls.

He added the duty of the FRSC operatives was to ensure that all the vehicles were certified for use during the elections.
