The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), Ikeja Unit Command, has warned Nigerians against use of earpiece while driving.
The warning was sounded by the Assistant Route Commander, Mr Olukayode Ayoola, in Lagos on Sunday, according to News Agency of Nigeria, NAN.
Ayoola, the report said gave it at the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Court of His Majesty, Abesan, Ipaja, Lagos while sensitising worshippers on road safety rules.
“All precautionary measures put out by the road safety are not for formalities but are meant to be adhered to, for the safety of all.
