The Corps Marshal of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), Boboye Oyeyemi, has called for greater dedication among personnel of the corps in the efforts to ensure safer road environment.
Oyeyemi’s charge to members of the corps was contained in a statement on Sunday by FRSC spokesman, Bisi Kazeem.
The corps marshal gave the charge at Udi, Enugu State while delivering his address to graduating cadets of the FRSC Academy Udi on Friday.
In congratulating the cadets for enduring the rigours of the six months training, Oyeyemi enjoined them to sustain the disciplinary standards they attained during their training.
The FRSC boss reminded the new officers to avoid acts that can undermine discipline, integrity and positive image earned by the corps over the years.
He particularly expressed gratitude to President Muhammadu Buhari for his unwavering support to the FRSC, adding that the corps had in the last four years continued to enjoy unprecedented provision of logistics and staff capacity development programmes.
Oyeyemi thanked the governor of Enugu State for providing office accommodation and other logistics support at the academy.
According to him, the academy would soon become a degree-awarding institution after being designated as the African Centre for study of Road Safety.
The passing out parade which involved 753 graduating cadets and replicated in Jos and Kotangora, Niger State for Marshals Inspectorate and Road Marshals Assistants cadres respectively involved a total of 4,300 personnel.
