Boboye Oyeyemi, the newly appointed Corps Marshal of the Federal Road Safety Commission, assumed duty in Abuja on Wednesday.
President Goodluck Jonathan had earlier on Wednesday approved Oyeyemi’s appointment to replace Osita Chidoka, who had been appointed as the Minister of Aviation.
Until his appointment, the new corps marshal, who was next in rank to the former corps marshal, was the Deputy Corps Marshal in charge of FRSC’s Motor Vehicle Administration.
Oyeyemi, who addressed the marshals, thanked the President for his appointment.
He expressed happiness that he was the first officer from the commission to be appointed as its chief executive since its inception in 1988.
Oyeyemi was a pioneer officer of the commission.
He urged the officers and men of the commission to cooperate with him so that together they could sustain and even surpass the achievement recorded under the leadership of Chidoka.
