FRSC Deploys High Level Tactical Team To Curb Aya- Nyanya Corridor Traffic
In a bold and proactive move to safeguard lives and restore sanity on one of the Federal Capital Territory’s busiest transport corridors, the Corps Marshal of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), Shehu Mohammed, has ordered the immediate deployment of a high level tactical team to the AYA–Nyanya Expressway following a series of disturbing road traffic crashes along the axis.
The team, led by the Assistant Corps Marshal, Operations, Olusegun Ogungbemide, has been mandated to carry out a comprehensive, on-the-spot assessment of the causative factors responsible for the incessant crashes and to recommend swift, evidence-based remedial measures.
According to a statement on Wednesday 18 March, 2026 and signed by Felicia Kalu mnipr

National Headquarters, Abuja, explained that the decisive intervention is another confirmation of the Corps Marshal’s commitment to proactive road safety management, intelligence driven enforcement, and the protection of lives and property rather than reacting to tragedies after they occur.

The statement added that FRSC leadership is taking firm and anticipatory steps to identify systemic risks, eliminate hazards, and strengthen operational presence on critical routes.
“The AYA–Nyanya corridor, being a major gateway into the nation’s capital, demands nothing short of strategic attention, and this deployment signals a zero tolerance stance against preventable road crashes.
“Coincidentally, the initiative is also a critical component of the ongoing Eid-el-Fitr Special Patrol operations, designed to ensure seamless traffic flow, reduced travel time, and safer journeys for millions of Nigerians during the festive period. By integrating tactical investigation with intensified patrol, the Corps is reinforcing its dual approach of enforcement and prevention, thereby delivering real time solutions to emerging road safety challenges.
To this end, the Corps Marshal re- emphasises that road safety is a shared responsibility and calls on all road users, drivers, commuters, and pedestrians to cooperate fully with the tactical team and adhere strictly to traffic regulations.
He assures the motoring public that the Corps will continue to evolve innovative strategies, deploy resources strategically, and act swiftly in the face of emerging threats to public safety.
