AbdulRazaq mourns Kwara admission seekers
Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq yesterday mourned the 17 students of Kwara State origin who at the weekend died in a road accident on their back from Kano where they had gone to write the post-Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) examinations.
In a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Rafiu Ajakaye, the governor described the incident as painful and preventable.“We, however, believe that we can avoid this calamity in the future. We reiterate our calls on drivers to always check their speed, respect other road users and put their vehicles in the best condition. Most accidents occur because our drivers often fail these three basic tests of safe driving,” the statement read in part.
