FRSC Denies Authorizing Its Officials To Carry Firearms by Nihza(m): 5:53am On Dec 06, 2016
The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) on Monday has debunked reports that its personnel are now authorized to carry arms on duty.

Bisi Kazeem, FRSC Head of Media Relations and Strategy, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) that the rumour was being circulated by mischievous elements seeking to provoke disorder in the society

Kazeem said that some “irresponsible” people took a recent statement by the Corps Marshal, Boboye Oyeyemi, out of context to suit their agenda.

He said the Corps Marshal was only lamenting the recent findings that 70 marshals lost their lives this year alone to some reckless motorists and was misquoted.

“The Corps Marshal only stipulated that such a high number of loses could have been avoided if FRSC personnel were carrying arms as allowed by the law. But, he quickly added that there is no immediate plan to implement the law that permits the officials to carry arms. It is unfortunate that some wicked people now took that to mean that he said officials are now being armed; it is a figment of their imagination .” he said.
