The Federal Road Safety Commission (FRSC) has restated its plans to begin nationwide enforcement of the new drivers’ licence and plate numbers on October 2.

FRSC Osun Sector Commander, Peter Oke, said this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Osogbo on Wednesday.

Mr Oke said the Osun command had marshal out strategies to ensure full enforcement of the law across the state.

“We have established a synergy with the state Internal Revenue Service to sensitise the public on the clampdown ahead of the October 2 deadline.

“Awareness campaigns are being carried out by the command to inform and educate the public on the enforcement plans,” he said.

The Sector Commander said the portal for issuance of drivers’ licence and number plates for applicants would now be at the Motor Licensing Authority (MLA) department of the state.

“The command’s enforcement in the state has improved towards the ember months’ campaign,” he said.

He said that sensitisation programmes are ongoing both on radio and television stations across the state to further enlighten residents of the enforcement plans.

Mr Oke, who also spoke on unclaimed drivers’ licences, urged applicants to locate the commission’s offices and claim their licences.
