On inadequate logistics in the command, the zonal commanding officer, assured personnel that management was doing everything possible to improve on logistics.
He called on personnel to manage the available logistics and continue to make the corps relevant, stressing that the corps owe the country sincerity.
He warned personnel against shady behaviours that would bring the corps into disrepute, as FRSC was highly rated and respected.
Earlier, the Sector Commander, Mr Matthew Olonisaye, said that the command recorded leser number of fatalities resulting from crashes due to increased level of Corps’ visibility at crash prone areas and quick response to crashes.
Olonisaye appealed to the FRSC management to improve on the logistics, as the command lack tow truck to response to heavy duty vehicles breakdown.
“The Sector Command is confronted also with old but refurbished patrol vehicles and this has posed a great threat to effective patrol operations.
“We are assured that with your visit sir, there will be set blueprints that will alleviate the command of the mentioned challenges,” Olonisaye said.
