The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has launched a nationwide Zonal Special Intervention Patrol (ZSIP), deploying 12 intelligence-led operations across its zonal commands to tackle the leading causes of road traffic crashes nationwide.
Beginning on the 20th of July, all 12 Zonal Commands of the Corps will simultaneously execute specially designed, code-named operations tailored to address the peculiar road safety challenges within their jurisdictions.

The coordinated intervention manifests the Corps’ resolve to confront specific traffic violations through intelligence-driven enforcement, robust public enlightenment, enhanced operational visibility, stakeholder engagement and strategic collaboration with sister security agencies.
The Special Intervention Patrol is an FRSC initiative aimed at reducing road traffic crashes by enabling zonal commands to tackle local crash patterns through targeted enforcement, public awareness, stakeholder collaboration, emergency response and increased operational presence.
Corps Marshal described the initiative as a decisive shift from conventional enforcement to targeted, intelligence-led operations capable of delivering greater impact.
According to him, every operation has been carefully designed to confront specific dangerous behaviours responsible for avoidable deaths and injuries.
He urged transport operators to embrace voluntary compliance, noting that road safety is a shared responsibility that demands collective action from government, transport stakeholders and every road user.
Corps Marshal Shehu concluded by affirming that the message is unmistakable: Every Zone has a mission. Every patrol has a purpose. Every operation is a commitment to saving lives.
