The Corps Marshal of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), Dauda Biu, has cautioned staff of the Road Safety Corps, against exhibiting indiscipline as regards their job, News About Nigeria reports.
He gave this warning while speaking at the first quarter Corps Marshal strategy session with commanding officers in Abuja on Wednesday.
He noted that engaging in indiscipline and corrupt practices led to the tarnishing of the image of the corps.
He further noted that corrupt practices must be dealt with, adding that any form of corruption would be met with severe consequences.
“I must address the observed instances of indiscipline among some of our FRSC operatives. It is unacceptable for any member of our corps to engage in misconduct or display untoward behavior that tarnishes the reputation of our organization.
“We must hold ourselves to the highest standards of professionalism working with globally acceptable ethics within the rule of law and integrity at all times.
“Moreover, the rising incidence of bribery among operatives is a stain on our collective integrity. Corruption has no place within our ranks, and we must take decisive action to root out this scourge from our organization. Let me be clear, any form of corruption will be met with swift and severe consequences,” he stated.
He maintained that the perception of overzealousness and incivility towards members of the general public must be addressed, adding that interactions with motorists and pedestrians should be characterised by professionalism and respect, which should be seen around the purpose of humanity and empathy.
