FRSC DOES NOT SEEK INTRODUCTION OF SHARIA LAW IN THE ENFORCEMENT OF TRAFFIC REGULATIONS

May 26, 2023
The Federal Road Safety Corps wishes to dissociate itself from a baseless and unfounded opinion currently published on different news platforms, linking the Corps to seeking the introduction of Sharia Law to compliment existing extant regulations on enforcement of traffic rules and prosecution of offenders.
The public is to note that the entire statement does not in anyway, reflect the position of the Federal Road Safety Corps.
The Corps Marshal, Dauda Ali Biu has recalled with immediate effect, the Sector Commander to the National Headquarters Abuja, for necessary administrative action because the Sector Commander through the quoted statements has breached the FRSC regulations and the Standard Operating Procedures
Without any reservation, it is key to inform the general public that the Federal Road Safety Corps is a Government Agency with statutory responsibilities for road safety administration in Nigeria and sensitive to the country’s multi-religious as well as heterogeneous ethnic composition.
The Corps was founded through Decree No. 45, as amended by Decree 35 of 1992 referred to in the statute books as the FRSC Act cap 141 Laws of the Federation of Nigeria (LFN). The Act was passed by the National Assembly as Federal Road Safety Corps (establishment) Act 2007.
By this very fact, it is important to clearly posit that the Corps is neither a religious nor sectional organisation, but a Federal Government Agency established with a mandate that is guided by the provisions of an establishment Act; and not a Sharia, Mosaic, customary, canon or any other law whatsoever that contradicts the provisions of it’s establishment Act, or the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
Our lead agency role is shielded in our strict compliance with established regulations duly passed by the National Assembly. As such, the public is humbly called to disregard the entire content of the opinion as published because it is outrightly baseless, unfounded and does not apply in our operations and service to the Nigerian people.

Renowned American Gospel singer, Don Moen, will be the guest music minister as the General Overseer of the Omega Fire Ministries (OFM) worldwide, Apostle Johnson Suleman, stages a mega crusade at the ministry’s international headquarters, Auchi, Edo State, Nigeria in December 2023.
Apostle Suleman made this known during the Sunday Live Service on May 14, stating that the American born worship singer would be ministering live at the crusade tagged ‘Amazing Grace 2023’ with his sweet voice that commands God’s guidance and power.
Also, the Enugu, Nigerian born Rocktown CEO and contemporary Gospel musician most recognized for his trademark high-pitched voice, Frank Edwards, would be ministering to win souls with praises.
Apostle Suleman’s untiring evangelism has spread the word of God to almost every corner of the globe and made him one of the most sought-after inspirational spiritual leaders in the 21st century. The mega crusade, it was gathered, will be one like no other, as there will be diverse encounters of the miraculous; burdens will be lifted, curses will be broken and the devil will be made a laughing stock.
Millions as usual will be fortunate to hear God’s call in the powerful voices of the three Spiritual Generals and witness them deliver the Gospel, pure and uncritical, in person or by watching them live streamed on cable links.
“As we come together to build a throne for God with praise, He will be with us to heal, to save and provide for our nations. So be prepared for the big divine turnaround,” Apostle Suleman said, adding that the solution to challenges facing nations is for people to understand that God lives in us; created us and that every community, state and the whole country should return to God.
‘The Restoration Apostle’ expressed confidence that the December Apostolic campaign would portray the love of God for the people of Nigeria, and rest of the world, while assuring that “loving God, loving one another and everyone around us, remain the solution to our problems.”

During his address, the Director, Ministry of Transportation and Aviation of Sierra Leone and leader of the team, Mr. Hindolo Shiaka thanked Mr. Bolaji Oreagba for the detailed presentation of the Agency’s operational guidelines and legal framework in line with dictates of effective traffic management and control.

Mr. Shiaka however promised to strengthen the cordial relationship between LASTMA and the Sierra Leone Ministry of Transportation and Aviation.
