In a statement signed by its Public Education Officer, Bisi Kazeem, said that the Corps did not produce the particular number plate.
“We wish to inform the general public that this particular number plate was not produced by FRSC and could not have been from us as a lead agency of elites in traffic management, we are therefore clarifying clearly of our not having anything to do with the said plate as it is being insinuated in particular social media platforms.”
He stated that the Corps had directed the Sector Commander of Kano State to investigate origin of the purported fake number plate and bring the perpetrators to book while ordering all field commands to clampdown on fake number plates.
