In June, the Major Energy Marketers Association of Nigeria (MEMAN) met with oil industry regulators, operators and enforcement agencies to mitigate the increasing number of truck-related accidents on Nigerian roads.
According to the Executive Secretary of MEMAN, Mr. Clement Isong, the meeting was on how road accidents involving trucks could be mitigated.
