The UN wants Cameroon to step up efforts to hit the 50 percent reduction target envisaged by the UN Decade of Action on Road Safety, Jean Todt said.

“UN is ready to support Cameroon in its drive to curb road accidents” he added.

The report recommends that Cameroon needs to quicken the ongoing effort to establish a database at Cameroon’s National School of Public Works and to align the database with the minimum set of road safety indicators being compiled by the African Transport Policy Programme and accelerate the process of designating a Lead Road Safety Agency if it must overcome road safety challenges.
