  Road traffic accidents, particularly motor bicycles and tricycles in the northern region of Ghana is a serious public health issue that needs serious attention With the aim to combat the increasing rate of road traffic accidents involving motorcycles and to promote road safety awareness in the Northern Region of Ghana, we propose the establishment of a non-profit organization named “Palli Zugu.” Translated as ‘On the Road’ in Dagbanli, the prominent local language, Palli Zugu will focus on advocating for motorcycle safety, promoting helmet usage, educating the community on road safety practices, and providing support to victims of motorcycle accidents.
