According to him, members of RTEAN need to other road users, and obey all traffic regulations and traffic agents.
He said: “Our members, even all the road users, must be careful while driving, so as not to endanger the lives of other road users.
“We should shun hard drugs and all tendencies to be in a haste or trying to intimidate and out-perform other road users without regard to the safety of other drivers.“
Iluyomade, however said that the RTEAN remained a peaceful organization with regards for peace and progress of the state. He appealed to members to always welcome new initiatives that will improve the business.
He also warned motorists of the implications of eating sugary foods before driving.
