Across the world, inculcating safety culture in children early in life remains one of the cost-effective and high-impact strategies for preventing the young citizens from accidents that could lead to loss of life or permanent disability. It is in the light of this that some recent initiatives of the Lagos State government meant to boost public safety, including the reinvigorated Operation Catch Them Young, are commendable. But for the goal to be achieved, the government has some responsibilities to perform, including strict and unbiased enforcement of the traffic laws.
The initiative at the behest of the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA), and the interactive storytelling programmes in schools all point to a shifting focus toward grassroots education on safety to prevent accidents rather than by pure law enforcement.
