In line with the Renewed Hope Agenda of the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR, which places strong emphasis on integrity, discipline, and a firm stand against corruption in public service; the Corps Marshal, Federal Road Safety Corps, Shehu Mohammed, has directed members of the Corps Management to embark on a nationwide engagement with officers and men across all formations of the Corps. This was contained in a statement signed by Olusegun Ogungbemide, mni, FISPON, anipr, Assistant Corps Marshal, Corps Public Education Officer, Federal Road Safety Corps Headquarters, Abuja.
The initiative is aimed at sanitising the operational culture of the Corps and reinforcing professionalism, productivity, and ethical service delivery in the discharge of its life-saving mandate.
The strategic engagement, which took place across commands nationwide on 3 March 2026, forms a critical pillar of the Corps Marshal’s ongoing reform agenda designed to reposition the Corps as a model institution built on discipline, accountability, and public trust.
During the engagements, members of Management delivered a clear and uncompromising message to personnel: the era of mediocrity is over.
Officers and men were charged to recommit themselves to the highest standards of discipline, integrity, and operational excellence while upholding a zero-tolerance stance on corruption in the discharge of their duties.
The Corps leadership emphasised that the renewed focus on professionalism is essential to strengthening institutional integrity and restoring public confidence in the Corps. Personnel were reminded that the mandate of the Federal Road Safety Corps goes beyond enforcement to protecting lives, promoting responsible road use, and serving the Nigerian public with honour, transparency, and accountability.
Under the leadership of Shehu Mohammed, the Corps is witnessing a renewed drive toward institutional renewal, one that prioritises professionalism, ethical conduct, and operational efficiency as the bedrock of service.
The nationwide engagement, therefore, represents a decisive step in reinforcing a culture where integrity is non-negotiable, excellence is expected, and every officer remains committed to the Corps’ core mission of saving lives on Nigerian roads.
The Management of the Corps reiterates its commitment to these reforms and assures the motoring public that the Corps will continue to strengthen its operations in order to deliver safer roads and improved service to the nation.
