Drivers warned of fraudsters selling fake FRSC stickers in Delta

Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) Delta State Command has promised to expose scammers who use the corps’ identity to sell stickers to shuttle bus drivers in the state.

In a statement, Delta State Sector Commander Bassey Eshiet stated that the commission is not working with anyone on the purported sticker sales.

He said shuttle bus drivers ought to refuse to fall for such a con, concocted by extortionists.

He said the “unwholesome” practice is against the mandate of the corps.

“It is extortion of money from shuttle bus drivers through sales of stickers to them, claiming to be FRSC stickers and that it will protect them from arrest if traffic law violation is established.

“The motoring public and road users are by this development advised to obey all traffic laws and regulations, desist from offering bribes to FRSC operatives, avoid speeding, overloading, use of unsafe tyres and driving under the influence of alcohol and drugs.

“The corps will soon commence a joint operation codenamed “Operation Sanitise Asaba-Benin, and Asaba-Onitsha Highways of Traffic lnfractions,” Eshiet informed
