The Corps Marshall of Federal Road Safety Commission, Dr. Boboye Oyeyemi
has said 25 officials of the commission were sacked Thursday night for
alleged official misconducts, saying more are still going.
He warned motorists across the country to stop bribing officials in the uniform of the commission, saying the commission pays them promptly.
The commission boss said he has directed all his men to impound vehicles they perceived not to be road-worthy on highways.
Boboye who spoke at the secretariat of the Nigerian Union of Journalists (NUJ) as part of the union's 2017 press week said all his officials have received their November salaries, adding that it is a crime for them to take from the poor public.
The FRSC boss noted that the fines of most of the offenses are cheaper than the bribe given to the men in uniform.
He however seeks the support of the media and general public to take photograph of any of his men who engage in any misconduct.
Speaking on the effects of over-speeding on the roads, Boboye urged motorists to drive carefully as we are approaching the end of the year, adding that over-speeding contributes 55 percent to the crashes on the road.
