The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has expressed readiness of the agency to arrest and prosecute any motorist who attempted to bribe its personnel or patrol operatives.
The FRSC Corps Marshal, Shehu Mohammed, who disclosed this on Thursday, issued a stern warning to motorists to pay their fines to designated banks instead of bribing its patrol operatives or entice them with financial benefits as well as other gratifications when arrested for violating traffic regulations.
He maintained that FRSC has a zero-tolerance policy for bribery and corruption, and it is completely against the values, ethics and standard operating procedures of the Corps.
Mohammed maintained that any motorist found attempting to bribe FRSC personnel will be arrested and prosecuted in line with extant provisions in the Corps’ Establishment Act (2007), as the Corps does not and will not tolerate any form of corruption whatsoever.
