Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

 

The Dangote Articulated Truck Driving School, Obajana, Kogi State
has enrolled 50 fresh trainee drivers, of which 10 are female trainees.

The fresh trainees were selected to participate in the 2023 Batch A training session, Divisional Director Transport, Mr. Ajay Singh, has said.

Singh said the intensive training is being conducted in collaboration with the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) and Fantique Driving Training Centre of South Africa.

According to him, experience has shown that female drivers are more careful, and have carted away most of the awards while emerging best in the past assessment conducted by the company.

Speaking also, the school manager, Mr. Daniel Marcus Akuso, added that some of the courses taught in the school include: Civic Education, English, Mathematics, Defensive Driving, Truck Handling, Maintenance Technology, DCT Administration Procedures, Root Cause Analysis, Health and Science, Road Signs and Codes.

Speaking, Deputy Road Commandant, (OC Instructor) of the FRSC attached to Dangote Driving School, Engr Mukhtar Umar said the commission has been playing a significant role in the training and certifying old drivers and newly recruited trainees.

“We teach them defensive driving, road signs, responsibilities of the driver, driving culture, and then certify them,” Umar said.

Oshile Victoria, 30, one of the female trainees and a graduate of Economics said she considered herself very lucky to have been selected to participate in the programme.

A 35-year-old trainee from Katsina State said it’s a dream come true.

In the same vein, Fatima Haruna Adamu, 27, who had wanted to join the army, said the driving school has helped fulfill her dream: “I believe what a man can do, a woman can do too.”

The Executive Secretary of the National Board for Technical Education (NBTE) Professor Idris Bugaje had said that the NBTE was partnering the Dangote Cement Plc in the execution of the school’s programme.
