FRSC Equips Patrol Team To Improve Civility In Operations

The Federal Road Safety Corps has begun a new high-level capacity-building workshop for its patrol team leaders across the Federal Capital Territory as part of efforts to entrench integrity, discipline, and civility in its operations.

This was according to a statement issued by the Assistant Corps Marshal, Corps Public Education Officer, Olusegun Ogungbemide, on Friday.

He explained that the Corps has rolled out a training programme specifically for team leaders who directly oversee field patrols in the FCT, stating that the goal is to reshape the way FRSC officers behave during operations.

The statement partly read, “In another bold step towards entrenching integrity and transforming operational culture, the Federal Road Safety Corps has commenced a high-level capacity building workshop for all Patrol Team Leaders across the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Sector Command and its component Units.

“The initiative, approved by the Corps Marshal, Shehu Mohammed, is designed to reposition the Corps as a bastion of civility, discipline, and service excellence on Nigerian roads. This intervention is aimed at sanitising field operations, eliminating corruption, and restoring public trust in road safety management.”

He made it clear that the reform is not only about training but about cleaning up the corps’ image and rebuilding public confidence by tackling misconduct and corruption on Nigerian roads.

He added that this shows that by starting with team leaders—the first contact motorists usually have—the Corps hopes the culture of civility and accountability will spread down to every officer on patrol.
