Over Mij

IKECHUKWU OKOYE, IS A SOCIAL ENTREPRENEUR A ND PASSIONATE ABOUT SAFETY ON OUR ROADS AND OTHER RELATED ISSUES MY KIND OF WORK REQUIRES EXTENSIVE TRAVELS BOTH WITHIN AND OUTSIDE THE COUNTRY. HE HAS ALSO ATTENDED CONFERENCES BOTH WITHIN AND OUTSIDE NIGERIA. HE IS QUICK TO POINT OUT THE PREVENTABLE LOSS OF VALUABLE LIVES ON OUR ROADS DUE TO CARELESSNESS.MY INVOLVEMENT WITH ARRIVE ALIVE CAME AS A RESULT OF MY HORRIBLE PERSONAL EXPERIENCES ON NIGERIAN ROADS,
MAKING THE HIGHWAYS SAFE AND IMBIBING TRAFFIC SAFETY REGULATIONS IS ESSENTIAL TO THE ACHIEVEMENT OF THE MILLENIUM DEVELOPMENT GOALS. MY THINKING IS THAT OBSERVING RULES OF THE ROAD WILL REDUCE THE SPATE OF CRASHES, WHICH OFTEN LEAD TO LOSS OF LIVES AND SHORTAGE OF THE MUCH NEEDED MANPOWER FOR AFRICA’S DEVELOPMENT. IN NIGERIA, ALONE WE REPORTEDLY LOST 4,944 LIVES IN 9,114 CRASHES AND 17,390 WERE BADLY OR MAIMED. " WHAT A WASTE OF PRECIOUS LIVES SOME THE CRASHES COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED WITH PROPER EDUCATION AND INFORMATION DISSEMINATION THROUGH THE USE OF ICT TOOLS AND STRATEGIES". THIS INITIATIVE WILL INTENSIFY AWARENESS ON THE USE OF ICTs TO SPREAD THE CULTURE AND MESSAGE OF ROAD PEACE, RESPONSIBLE DRIVING AMONGST ROAD USERS . IT ASPIRES TO SET A NEW MOMENTUM FOR COMMUNICATION AMONGST ROAD USERS WITH THE PROSPECT OF ENHANCING AND EMPOWERING THEIR SOCIOECONOMIC AND POLITICAL PARTICIPATION IN THEIR COMMUNITIES. WITH THE PROSPECT OF EXCITING THEM TO A NEW LEVEL OF EXPERIENCE.
