The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has approved the promotion of 7,472 personnel nationwide to enhance professionalism and leadership within its operations. The group of promoted staff includes 2,134 officers and 5,338 marshals. Corps Marshal Shehu Mohammed stated that the elevation is intended to reward merit, discipline, and years of service, noting that every new rank must translate into higher levels of accountability and service delivery.
