Motorists and other road users have been advised to be mindful of road signs ahead of the Yuletide to help reduce road accidents that are recorded during that period.
The advice was given by the Deputy Chief Executive in charge of operations at the DVLA, Mr Prince Opoku Edusei, in a media interview, when the DVLA fellowshipped with the Christ the King Church in Accra on Sunday as part of its thanksgiving service to climax its 25th anniversary celebration.
“At DVLA, we stand for safety, and that is why our tagline is ‘Your safety is our concern’. As we go into the Christmas celebrations, we wish everybody safe journeys wherever they will travel to. Let us please be mindful of road signs on our roads and let us all arrive alive,” Mr Edusei said.
Furthermore, Mr Edusei said the DVLA would continue to improve on its innovation drive by implementing various digital solutions from the beginning of next year to enhance its service delivery.
Delivering the sermon, Reverend Father Gerald Owusu-Amankwatia urged the staff and officials of the DVLA and other members of the congregation to rejoice and always give thanks to God, irrespective of the challenges or the set-backs they may have faced throughout the year and look forward to the future with hope and optimism.
Moreover, he entreated the staff and officials of the DVLA to be agents of joy at their workspace by being compassionate, showing love and being kind to their colleague workers and clients that come to the DVLA for service delivery.
During the thanksgiving service, staff and officials of the DVLA clothed in their anniversary attire, danced, praised, and thanked God for its achievements and success since its establishment.
They also presented gifts, hampers, and a token to the Parish in appreciation of God’s faithfulness, goodness, and mercies to the Authority throughout the year.
Also, prayers were said by Reverend Father Owusu-Amankwatia, who led the mass and thanksgiving service for the staff and officials of the DVLA ahead of the new year.
