A video showing officials of the Federal Fire Service lamenting the nonchalant attitude of Nigerian motorists toward blaring emergency sirens has made the rounds on social media.
In the footage, the firefighters were rushing to respond to a fire outbreak with their sirens turned on to alert road users to clear the path. However, the clip captured several motorists refusing to yield or make way for the emergency vehicle, leaving the fire truck stuck in traffic and delaying their arrival at the scene.
Expressing his frustration, one of the personnel criticized the lack of road discipline, noting that emergency vehicles are strictly given priority on roads in other countries.
‘’Anytime I tell you they do not clear the road for us, you think I am joking. This is what I always complain of. They are not clearing the road for us. Can you imagine this? Nigerians, can you see this?'’ the official said
