FRSC cautions officers against chasing erring motorists

Boboye Oyeyemi, Corps Marshal, FRSC
The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) on Saturday cautioned its officers against chasing erring motorists no matter the traffic offense committed.
The FRSC Corps Public Education Officer, Mr. Bisi Kazeem, gave the warning in a telephone interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos.
He was reacting to media reports of an accident on Friday in Ibadan following a chase by FRSC officers.
Kazeem told NAN that the Corps Marshal of the FRSC, Mr. Boboye Oyeyemi, frowned at the incident.
“The Corps Marshal, Mr. Boboye Oyeyemi, condemned the act as it is our rule that officers should not chase any erring motorist.
“Rather the vehicle number should be taken and the offender will in no time be arrested through our drivers’ license portal.
“As a paramilitary agency investigation must be carried out and if the officers are found guilty, they will be dealt with accordingly,” Kazeem said.

7-year-old migrant girl dies of dehydration and exhaustion while in custody of US Border Patrol

                            A 7-year-old girl from Guatemala has died of dehydration and shock after she was taken into Border Patrol custody last week for crossing from Mexico into the United States illegally with her father and a large group of migrants along a remote span of New Mexico desert. The child’s death is likely to intensify scrutiny of detention conditions at Border Patrol stations and CBP facilities that are increasingly overwhelmed by large numbers of families seeking asylum in the United States. According to CBP records, the girl and her father were taken into custody about 10 p.m. on December 6th south of Lordsburg, N.M., as part of a group of 163 people who approached U.S. agents to turn themselves in.
