Shake Up In FRSC As Corps Deploys Over 15 Officers

The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has redeployed selected senior officers across key commands and formations nationwide, as part of ongoing efforts to enhance operational effectiveness.

FRSC Corps Marshal, Shehu Mohammed, in a statement yesterday, said the postings, which take immediate effect, re-echoed the management’s resolve to continuously align leadership deployment with the strategic priorities of the corps.

Under the redeployment, Deputy Corps Marshal Pauline Olaye was moved from the Special Duties and External Relations Department (SDER) to the Department of Administration and Human Resources at the national headquarters, while Assistant Corps Marshal (ACM) Godwin Omiko, PhD, formerly Corps Project Implementation Officer, now serves as ACM, SDER, at headquarters.

Also, ACM A. Sanusi, who was previously the Assistant Corps Marshal, Manpower Development (Training), is now Zonal Commanding Officer, RS1HQ Kaduna, just as ACM M.O. Olonisaye, erstwhile Corps Safety Engineering Officer, now commands RS2HQ Lagos Zonal Command.

In the same vein, ACM A. Umar, formerly the Zonal Commanding Officer, RS1HQ, proceeds on a course to the National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies (NIPSS).

Also affected are ACM J.W. Toby and ACM E. Odiete, who have exchanged commands between RS5HQ Benin and RS11HQ Osogbo, while ACM Y.A. Haruna takes over as ACM, Federal Operations, and ACM A.K. Odeleye-Oladayo transits to RS8HQ Ilorin Zonal Command as the Zonal Commanding Officer to strengthen administrative and operational coordination.

Similarly, ACM C.M. Onukwubiri has been redeployed from RS8HQ Ilorin to assume duty as Corps Safety Engineering Officer at the national headquarters, while at the Corps Commander level, CC F.A. Ogidan now serves as Corps Commander in charge of Command Administration and Strategy.

In addition, AS Ibrahim and CC A.S. Ogungbemi have been posted as Sector Commanders in Adamawa and Plateau states respectively, while CC S.E. Dawulung has been appointed Acting Corps Project Implementation Officer, and CC D.A. Bello now heads Special Marshals at the national headquarters, Abuja.

Mohammed directed all affected officers to ensure seamless handing and taking over and to assume duty immediately.

“Management is confident that this strategic redeployment will further strengthen command efficiency, service delivery, and institutional responsiveness nationwide,” he said.
