There have been several reports on road crashes and it appears the cases are on the rise. Something must be done about it, as there is a likelihood that the cases could increase, especially as we get deep into the rainy season.
Most of the accidents are due to the poor state of roads across the country. I, therefore, plead with relevant authourities to look into this issue and address it.

I know that it may be difficult for road construction to be done now because of the rains. But this should be noted so that once the rains are over, the construction can begin and before the next rains, the roads will be completed.
Most of the deaths on the roads could have been avoided if the roads were in good condition.
