FRSC tasks units, outpost commanders on integrity, professionalism
The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) Wednesday charged its units and outpost commanders on integrity and professionalism while discharging their duties.
The FRSC Corps Marshal (CM), Shehu Mohammed, gave the charge while declaring open a Unit and Outpost Commanders’ Retreat held at the FRSC Academy, Udi, near Enugu.
Mohammed, represented by Assistant Corps Marshal (ACM),
Hyginus Omeje, noted that actions of units and outpost commanders, who serve as FRSC field commanders, have a significant impact on the corps’ reputation.
He said: “I urge you to maintain the highest standards of integrity and professionalism as officers that have direct interface with road users.
“The current management is proud of your achievements and is committed to supporting you in addressing any lapses or areas for improvement.
“I also seize the opportunity to encourage you all to resourcefully engage all operational and enlightenment activities in reaching out to the motoring public for good conducts on the road.
“Attitudinal change is important where we desire to trend down road traffic crashes nationwide.
“I am pleased to reiterate that all members of the corps are adequately motivated for service delivery in all aspects of road safety,” he said.
The corps marshal noted that the contributions of units and outposts commanders to moving the corps forward are invaluable, adding that the corps recognised the critical role they play in achieving FRSC mandate.
He reiterated management dedication to creating an enabling environment that fosters growth, innovation, and excellence in all unit and outpost commands of FRSC.
The FRSC boss urged all FRSC commands nationwide to leverage on the potentials of technological innovation, especially on the FRSC App and Portal – as it would reduce the burden of feedback to members of the public at all command levels.
He said: “In the course of this retreat, we will engage in productive discussions, team-building activities and strategic sessions.”
