This means that apart from ACM to DCM, others must observe a statutory waiting period.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe officer can only be qualified for promotion after the required period is met and the officer must be free of any disciplinary case(s), \u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Kazeem said that contrary to the author\u2019s claim all promotions in the corps were based on merit, observance of Federal Character Principle and availability of vacancies as approved by the Office of the Head of Civil Service of the Federation on a yearly basis.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cStating the above criteria has become utterly important to register the transparent and objective nature of FRSC promotion exercise to the minds of the public, the statement said.<\/p>\n<p>The spokesman explained that the five states, Rivers, Bayelsa, Nasarawa, Yobe, and Sokoto that were alleged to have been sidelined did not have a single personnel that was eligible to participate in the promotion exercise as at the time the promotion list was compiled.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is so because none of the senior officers from those states has completed the mandatory and statutory waiting period.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHaving said that, it is important to also state, for the sake of clarity, that the states that were alleged to have been favoured which included Imo, Edo, Enugu, Oyo and Ebonyi all have candidates.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd they all met the necessary requirements for the promotion before they were considered for the promotion exercise,\u201c he said.<\/p>\n<p>Kazeem said that as a media friendly organisation, the corps wishes to applaud the watchdog role of the press which had over the years entrenched transparency and accountability in Public Service.<\/p>\n<p>Kazeem urged journalists to always balance their reportage by seeking appropriate clarifications.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has clarified a media report alleging promotion racketeering in the organisation.
