The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) in Kogi has issued a stern warning to its officers, emphasizing the need for diligence and integrity in their duties, and prohibiting any form of extortion or harassment of motorists on the highways.
During the opening ceremony of a strategic workshop for heads of operations, held at the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) command headquarters in Lokoja, Kogi State, Sector Commander Samuel Oyedeji delivered a stern warning to officers, emphasizing the need for unwavering diligence, unshakeable integrity, and a commitment to ethical conduct in their duties, while expressly prohibiting any form of extortion, harassment, or unprofessional behavior towards motorists.
He emphasized that non-compliance with duty requirements or unethical behavior would result in severe consequences, including possible termination of service, as a means of maintaining discipline and setting an example for others to follow.
“We are in Kogi as officers and men of the corps to serve diligently; and that we must put at the back of our minds.
“Any act that could tarnish our image as a corps should be avoided and we should rather project the FRSC in good light before the public,” he said.
He said that the safety of travellers on the highways should be paramount to the corps and urged officers be proactive in reaching out during road accidents.
