President Goodluck Jonathan has appointed Boboye Oyeyemi as the new Corps Marshall of the Federal Road Safety Corps, FRSC, following the appointment of the former head, Osita Chidoka, as Minister of Aviation.
Until his elevation, Mr. Oyeyemi was the Deputy Corps Marshal in charge of the Corps’ operations department.
His appointment is a radical departure from the past where previous heads of the FRSC were appointed from outside the organization.
Mr. Jonathan said he appointed Mr. Oyeyemi to ensure stability.
He said: “We are appointing Deputy Corp Marshall Oyeyemi as the Corp Marshall. We will expect that you will do a very good job there.
“I believe you will work with your colleagues and make sure that you don’t just maintain what Osita (Chidoka) has done but that you will also improve on that”.
