Between January and March 2025, official records show that road crashes slightly declined compared to last year. Yet, deaths rose. The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) usually provides detailed breakdowns of these figures—but in this case, they did not respond to our calls or messages seeking clarification.

So today, we explore why fatalities are increasing, hear from drivers on the road every day, learn from a doctor what to do when you come across an accident, and get insights from a public affairs analyst on how to change the trend.
