Oreagba emphasized that the relationship's integrity would be maintained and new avenues for communication explored to prevent future occurrences.

He called for enhanced cooperation and collaboration among government bodies, including Lastma. Adetuyi commended Lastma officials for their commendable daily efforts and assured continued support from the Nigerian Army's 9th Brigade Command to ensure the safety of traffic managers during their duties.
