FRSC Lagos Command to begin “Operation show your Driver’s Licence”

The Federal Road Safety Corps in Lagos state will today begin a special patrol code-named “Operation Show Your Driver’s Licence”.

The exercise is simply a clampdown on drivers who failed to produce Driver’s License on demand.

State Sector Commander, Hyginus Omeje, says defaulting motorists run the risk of being fined N10,000.

He said that the two-week special patrol was aimed at reducing the high incidents of motorists driving without valid driver’s licence in the state, as most motorists who apply for licence never care to go back to the licensing offices to collect their permanent licence.

The request was contained in a letter addressed to the President and titled: “Request for Release of 40 Nigerian Citizens from Illegal Custody of Nigerian Navy”.

Falana urged President Buhari to direct the Chief of Naval Staff, Vice Admiral Ibok-Ete Ekwe Ibas, to either release the detainees from unlawful custody or arraign them in court without any further delay.
