The attention of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has been
drawn to reports that the Corps has advertised and has started a
fresh recruitment exercise.
According to Bisi Kazeem, Corps Public Education Officer, FRSC fake
FRSC website has been created by some fraudsters in this regard to
fleece unsuspecting applicants of their hard earned money. The Corps
Marshal, Dr. Boboye Oyeyemi, has therefore ordered that a public alert
be given to innocent Nigerians to disregard the false information being
peddled by the fraudsters in the social media.
Kazeem stated that the activities of the fraudsters are being
investigated by relevant authorities The Corps is using this medium to
clarify that FRSC is at the moment not conducting any form of
recruitment and will make it a public knowledge through major newspapers
and other relevant media whenever such recruitment exercise is to take
place as already approved by the Federal Government.
Kazeem stated that the Corps Marshal clarified thus: “His
Excellency, President Muhammadu Buhari has graciously given approval for
the recruitment of qualified Nigerians into the services of the Corps,
but the advertisement has not been made public yet.
In his words, “the Corps has established mechanisms to achieve a
smooth exercise and these established processes are presently
undergoing scrutiny to ensure a flawless and smooth exercise. When we
are ready, the public will be properly informed through adverts in the
national dailies”.
Kazeem therefore called on the general public to discountenance the
current portal linked to the Corps and has been in circulation in the
internet and other media platforms.
He further stressed that whenever the Corps is recruiting,
information on such will be readily made available through the following
official platforms; www.frsc.gov.ng, www.facebook.com/FRSCNigeria or
