Abuja, March 20, 2026 (NAN) The Corps Marshal, Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), Malam Shehu Mohammed, on Friday congratulated Muslims on the successful completion of the Ramadan fast and the celebration of Eid el-Fitr.
The FRSC corp Marshall’s congratulatory message is contained in a statement by the Acting Corps Public Relations Officer (ACPEO), Mrs Felicia Kalu.
Mohammed praised the Muslim faithful for their devotion, discipline, and spiritual commitment throughout the holy month.
He urged them to sustain the virtues of love, patience, selflessness, and peaceful coexistence which define the Ramadan period.
The corps marshal emphasized that the values of restraint, sacrifice, and care for others were critical to promoting safety on Nigerian roads.
He noted that many road traffic crashes are avoidable when road users act with patience and consideration.
He, therefore, called on motorists, pedestrians, and all other road users to imbibe such lessons, especially during festive periods.
“This includes obeying traffic regulations, avoiding dangerous driving, and prioritizing the safety of lives and property,” he said.
While wishing the Muslim faithful a peaceful and joyous celebration, the corps marshal reaffirmed the commitment of the FRSC to ensuring safer roads.
This, he said, would be through sustained patrols, strategic deployment of personnel, and collaboration with relevant stakeholders nationwide.
He urged members of the public to support the corps’ efforts by promptly reporting road crashes and emergencies through the FRSC toll-free emergency line 122 “as well as the National Traffic Radio platforms, to allow for timely response and lifesaving interventions.”
He encouraged all Nigerians to take advantage of the Eid el-Fitr period to promote unity, national harmony, and collective responsibility towards building safer roads for all. (NAN)
