This volunteer arm was created by the same FRSC statute Sec. 10 (1)… “the Corps” which shall consist of such number of uniform and non-uniform members as may be determined, from time to time, by the Commission. FRSC Establishment Act (2007). The Act empowers the Special Marshals to carry out patrol and other activities that ensure good road usage on our highways. Just like their Regular counterparts, they can arrest and book traffic offenders as well as prosecute them when necessary.
The activities of the Special Marshals have brought the awareness of road safety to most segments of the society because their membership cuts across every sphere of our society. Academicians, transporters, civil society groups, journalists, captains of industry, celebrities etc are all involved in Special Marshals activities. By their numbers, the Special Marshals have adequately complemented the efforts of the Regular Marshals, especially in the areas of patrol operations, traffic control, public enlightenment etc. The Special Marshals have also made tangible contributions to the operation of the Corps through donation of vehicles and other patrol equipment, as well as sponsorship of public enlightenment programmes of the Corps. The Special Marshals serve as image makers for the Corps through advocacy.
