My attention was drawn to the judgement in the case between FRSC vs Dr. Shebbs. Read the facts of the case here:
https://afnews.ng/court-slams-frsc-with-%E2%82%A610-million-fine-for-illegal/ one lesson from this case is the fact that as a citizen you have to know your right. Ignorance of the law have made it so easy for citizens to be oppressed and intimidated by different enforcement institutions. There are laws relevant to our daily living and so it becomes important to be abreast with it as citizens. This will help you avoid unnecessary exploitation and prevent institutional overreach.
What do you think about this judgement? Do you think this will weaken the operation of Federal Road Safety CORPS (FRSC)?
Federal Road safety corps are specialty in harassing innocent Nigerians on the road. If you failed to comply with them by not offering them tips,their will fault you in different angles and also impound your car straight to their offices. This officers are only interested in the tips that they will get from the driver not minding wether
yourhis/her car documents and driving license are completely certified or not,just offer them a bribe of N500 and you're good to go. Also I hope this judgement is applicable to all government arm security agencies particular the Nigeria police because Dem own too much for road. According to this judgement it's now clear that the FRSC "
do not have the legal right to seize a citizen’s driver’s licence, vehicle, or documents without due court process."
This judgement passed by the law court will saved a lot Nigerians from future harassment from this scandalous officers.
