RWANDA DEFENCE FORCE PERSONNEL COMPLETE SAFETY DRIVING AND TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT COURSE
Kigali, 9 May 2024
Today, 195 Rwanda Defence Force Personnel completed a seven-months Driving and Traffic Management course held at Kanombe Barracks in Kigali.
Over the past seven-months, new drivers acquired skills in safety driving, traffic management, and techniques focusing on heavy and light-duty vehicles in various operational scenarios.
General MK Mubarakh, the RDF Chief of Defence Staff who presided over the pass-out ceremony, congratulated the commissioned drivers for reaching this significant milestone. He underscored the need for RDF personnel to be capable of operating different types of vehicles effectively. He reminded the new drivers to maintain discipline, professionalism, and particularly refrain from consuming alcohol as it is a key factor in causing accidents.
