In a press statement signed by Bisi Kazeem, Assistant Corps Marshal, Corps Public Education Officer, he said “the attention of the FRSC has just been drawn to a report that the Corps Marshal is seeking the permission of the Federal Government for the personnel of the Corps to bear arms.
“The said eronous statement credited to the representative of the Corps Marshal at the Passing Out Parade of Cadets at the Nigerian Army Training Centre (NATRAC) . Kotangora, Niger State , does not reflect the current position of the Corps Marshal
and the management team.”
