Mr Hyginus Omeje, the Lagos State Sector Commander of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has disclosed that 56, 767 driving licences were yet to be collected by their owners.

Omeje who disclosed this on Saturday in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) urged the owners of the licences to collect them as the command would soon embark on “Operation Show Your Driving Licence.’’

He added that the corps would embark on the mission across all units of the command.

“We are embarking on this assignment so that motorists will come to our office to collect their driving’ licences.

“We have no backlog of new driving licences in Lagos State.

“There are 56,767 licenses yet to be collected by their owners.

“We have sent SMS to their owners that their licences are ready for collection but they ignored responding to our our messages,’’ the FRSC boss said.

Omeje frowned at the attitude of some road users driving without valid licences saying that such licences remained the only certification to drive on the road.

According to him, the fine for a driver driving without a valid licence is N10, 000 and the offender must produce the licence within 24 hours.

Omeje said that if after 24 hours such offender could not produce a valid licence, the vehicle of such offender would be impounded.

He said that in such situation, it would be assumed that the driver was not licensed to drive.

Omeje said that the corps was not interested in the fines or depriving anyone the comfort of his vehicle, but advised motorists to do the right thing and be safety conscious.

He, however, revealed that between Feb. 26 and March 2, no fewer than 4, 644 licenses were collected by the applicants. (NAN)

March 31st will make it six months after my temporary licence was collected, and there is no news about my permanent licence which by the way is valid for 3yrs.
same applied to my national ID card with NIM. For a 5yr valid ID, almost 3yrs were spent in the office of NIM, leaving me with less than half of the validity.

Good call. Go get ur driving licence

Oga sector commander.

The temporary one ur boys gave me after all the noise and stress i was made to go through have expired.

Its almost 6 months now and the original/main one is not ready.

I don't know maybe I am suppose to rub some hands again before getting it.

Still ur boys won't allow me drive in peace like am the one causing the delay in my own DL.

This is what happens when you drink fermented beer with akara for breakfast! Sense passes out like bad air from down there!

FRSC should do the same in kano.

They are sha looking for ways to come back on Lagos roads, dem need money. The governor dey wait 4 una, yeye fifu.

"Operation make driving licence collection process easier and more effecient"





Do you know anybody with a samsung s6 with a dead panel?
I am willing to buy the screen.
My phone number on profile.

In an ideal situation, before u drive ur car, u r suppose to have ur driving licence. In a situation whereby u apply for DL, before it comes out it has already expired. The licence does not come out on time. Please FRSC, do the needful when someone applies for DL, it shud come out within one week...I know u can achieve this by deploying resources to ur various sectors across the country...God Bless Nigeria...

So no test just turn up wonders shall never end.

This people are they OK when its taking them eternity to produce driving licence.

You can check if your license is ready by sending an sms. Downside is that the sms only works on mtn line though.

Driving Drivers license

Driving license is correct... learn!!

90% of danfo drivers don't have. Those guys are lunatics

Instead of them to put in this effort in making the document easily obtainable they are there pursuing the symptoms.

Watch traffic disappear.

The process is seamless joor. The best way is to arrest culprits. But make dem no sha collect bribe.
