The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has disengaged 43 personnel over offences bordering on desertion, scandalous conduct, and patrol-related misconduct.
The affected officers include 31 dismissed for desertion, five for scandalous behaviour, and seven for patrol-related misconduct.
In a statement signed by the Corps Public Education Officer, Olusegun Ogungbemide, the Corps stated that “the FRSC badge is a symbol of honour and responsibility. Any officer who chooses to violate the standards of this noble institution will face the full weight of the Corps’ disciplinary machinery.”
Corps Marshal Shehu Mohammed described the action as a bold reaffirmation of the Corps’ zero-tolerance stance on indiscipline and ethical violations.
He stressed that the FRSC remains a professional paramilitary organisation guided by strict operational standards and would not condone any conduct capable of undermining public trust, institutional integrity, or its core objectives.
Mohammed noted that desertion constitutes a grave breach of service oath and operational responsibility, particularly in a safety-critical organisation entrusted with protecting the lives of millions of road users daily.
