FRSC Denies Shortlisting Successful Applicants

The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has denied reports that it has begun shortlisting successful applicants in its ongoing recruitment.

This was contained in a statement signed by the Corps Public Education Officer, Bisi Kazeem, on Thursday, in Abuja.

“The attention of the FRSC has been drawn to a false and misleading publication ‘FRSC Recruitment 2018 Shortlisted candidates in All States is out-Check your name here,” he said.

“The public should be informed that this is totally false and fabricated by some misleading miscreants.

“Hence the Corps would like to disclaim and refute the said publication on the above website and any other such publications circulating in other media.”

In May, FRSC announced it has begun the process of a nationwide recruitment of new personnel as recently approved by the Federal Government.

Corps Marshal, Boboye Oyeyemi, said recently that the Corps will recruit additional 4,650 officers and procure new logistics vehicles to improve road safety management in the country.

“For the second part of the year, we are going to put in our best, deploy more resources and logistics as we know that budget has been signed by the president,” Oyeyemiu had said.

“We have commenced the processes, for us to inject more vehicles, patrol van, ambulances and bikes that will enable us work more and strengthen our operations.

“We thank President Muhammadu Buhari, for the additional fund allocated to the corps.

“He has displayed his passion to improve on road safety management in the country within the last three years.

“In the next few months we should be able to procure all these items and we are also injecting additional personnel of about 4,650 to the system.

“This is unprecedented in the history of the corps and we appreciate this from the president.”
