Security Alert: FRSC Invites Police, SSS to Train Officers

Reports state that the operatives, who were from the State Security Service (SSS) and the Nigeria Police, lectured the FRSC officers on national security.

The officers, drawn from Osun, Oyo and Ondo states' Sector Commands of the commission, were tutored on intelligence gathering, combating crime and other security tips.

The Zone 11 Commanding Officer, Mr Sambo Kinya, while addressing the participants, said the seminar was organised for officers to be abreast with security challenges in the country and plan ahead for any situation.

``The seminar will make us identify related security threats, roles of intelligence in FRSC and at the national level with a view to preventing loss of lives and property,'' Kinya said.

He said that the statutory duties of the officers of the commission had attracted attention of some groups, which were becoming threats, and there was the need to be security conscious.

He charged the officers to digest and make use of the knowledge gained at the seminar during the course of their duties.
