Can you share your experiences on getting the new FRSC driver's license. How would you rate FRSC on the convenience of the process and the manner the driver's license scheme have fared so far.

Let's share and give FRSC constructive feedbacks.

Re: New Frsc Driver's License by Nobody: 9:30pm On May 20, 2013
Have gotten mine.... Damn! It was so stressful, I fell ill for two days after the whole exercise... First , go to FRSC office at Ojodu, after Omole phase 2. And ask any of the officers at the gate to direct you to the main quarters where the form is collected. Then talk to one of the officers at the main quarters they will tell you , processes on how to go about it... But be ready to wait in different queues for long long hours, and u will go through two different eye tests, also a driving test....and a short exam about driving codes. If u pass the test, lucky you, then the next crucial stage of Capture comes up...which u must be there before 7am... Anything after 7am for Capture? U are on your own.. That day of capture is another stressful day on its own ... Be ready to spend the whole day there.. At the end of that day, u will be given another 3 months to come take a picture, with your finger prints taken...and other datas, be ready also to spend another full day there...
See queues, u go bow nah.... Every appointment day, they attend to 250 people , on every appointment day... The driver license is honestly for the Brave hearts !......
Omo, I fell ill after the last lap... Am still regaining myself since those fateful weeks. sad cry
But at last, I av an Authentic driver license...
Beginners and renewals can go to Ojodu headquarter , FRSC...
Best of luck, cause anyone going there, really need all the luck they can lay their hands on...
Lemme take my remaining blood tonic... sad

This thing can be done in Ogun and Oyo State.

Folks, It just does not speak good about FRSC as a progressive parastatal in this age. There are backlog in most states of the SW but I don't know about states outside SW. Imagine the driver's license is valid for 3 yrs and it has taken some people over a year still without getting the chance to take the computer data picture talkless of getting the license.
How would people not patronise quacks. Has FRSC set up the new driver's license to fail like the previous ones and to enrich the fakers?

It has been over 2 months since I paid for a new license, I passed all the tests and was directed to an office to get a "capture" date. I went to the FRSC office and asked the young man there for the procedure to get a capture date, he pointed to 2 numbers on the wall ( 08033927892 and 08066067903) and asked me to call any of the numbers to get a date. I have been calling for 2 months now,one day a lady answered the phone and asked I call back in a months time, I was shocked. Fast forward 2 months, I have been calling the numbers but the phone keeps ringing and no one ever answers, I have had my completed forms and receipt with me for 2 months, this is very frustrating. What kind of country is this ? like seriously !!!!!!!!!!

Re: New Frsc Driver's License by olajide8(m): 6:09pm On May 21, 2013
I may have to digress a bit.
Its crazy and dirty, some people always look for an avenue to make small bucks show *territorialism* and useless importance because they wear uniform, they harass the law abiding ones that for just some certain difficult reasons are struggling to make ends meet just because of these plastic licenses which are not acceptable in even, cotonou.
Secondly the process is too time consuming in abuja you have to get there very early by 9am and wait till 11am/12noon to start the process, its totally impossible for you to steal some minutes to do it.
Thirdly its to damn expensive N7,000, they have turned themselves into a revenue earner for the government, *which cannot be found in the law creating them* what is the problem of our so called nigerian political and executive class, I ask do things have to always be difficult, in this country we already have sufficiently enough challenges to be faced with more challenges where there shouldn't be any.

10-20 names (depends) are put together monthly, FRSC official are invited, they comes with forms; forms filled and given back to them with cash, days later they call to say, come over on 'an agreed date(s)' for the necessary processes (test, finger prints, physical capture) etc. Temporary license given. When the original's ready, they call to inform and collection follows.

I think owerri has a peculiar problem.after the whole process and u're issued with the temporary license that lasts for two months, u go back to them only to be told to photocopy it, an officer then stamps on d photocopy and writes that it has been extended for another 2months and it just keeps happenin like dat as if the original never comes for people in owerri.mine has been like dat for about 6months now.

In my case, i was quite lucky that my previous driver's license which expired sometime in feb was authentic which they confirmed at the frsc office in ojodu. . .so instead of paying 12k or so like i was just registering afresh. . .i paid 6000+ . . and did only the written test.. . .unlike the freshers who were told to take the driving test. Spent approximately 2hrs at their office...and did i mention? i went on a saturday..
