In the same vein, the FRSC Marshal, Dr Boboye Oyeyemi, also announced a programme, aimed at promoting good behaviour in his officers.

"We can therefore, not afford to take the huge trust that members of the public and government repose in us through our sustained civility lightly. We therefore need to build on the knowledge of civility among our patrol officers who lead patrol teams at this period when the nation is experiencing change mantra under the administration of President  GCFR.

FRSC as a people-centered organization will therefore, continue to uphold the virtues of civility in its enforcement of traffic rules and regulations,” he promised.
