President Muhammadu Buhari has appointed the Deputy Corps Marshal, Finance and Accounts, Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), Dauda Biu, as the acting Corps Marshal.
The development follows the retirement of Mr Boboye Oyeyemi on July 24.
This was made known by Oyeyemi on Monday while handling over to Biu at the FRSC headquartres in Abuja.
In a statement, the Corps Public Education Officer (CPEO) Assistant Corps Marshal (ACM) Bisi Kazeem on Monday in Abuja, noted that Biu’s appointment took effect from July 24 and wished him a successful tenure as he assumed office.
FRSC Board Chairman, Malam Bukhari Bello who congratulated Bello on his appointment, urged him to sustain the tempo as well as ensure that he justifies his appointment.

Before his appointment, Biu was the Deputy Corps Marshal, Finance and Accounts at the FRSC headquarters.
He joined the FRSC in 1988 and has had a fruitful career working across several formations.
He holds a Master’s degree in Business Administration (MBA) from Ahmadu Bello University and was the Assistant Corps Marshal (ACM) Finance and Accounts in 2014 before becoming the DCM in 2016.
