The Federal Road Safety Corps said 32 of its officers lost their lives while on duty between 2018 and 2022.

The Corps Marshal, FRSC, Dauda Biu, had decried the incessant killing of patrol operatives as a result of the recklessness of some drivers.

“FRSC operation officers should stop chasing vehicles for arrest. Any motorist that kills FRSC officers must be prosecuted to serve as a deterrent to others. FRSC officers working on the road should be using secret body cameras and the cameras should be linked to a control room where their activities and those of road users around them can be monitored for documentation and intervention where necessary.
