FRSC spokesperson Assistant Corps Marshal Olusegun Ogungbemide announced the recovery on Friday, attributing the success to “intelligence-driven operations supported by the National Vehicle Identification Scheme (NVIS) portal, a data-driven platform key to combating vehicle-related crimes.”
According to him, the recovered vehicles, stolen through armed robbery, abduction, and fraudulent means, include 24 Toyotas, 5 Lexuses, 2 Mercedes, 1 Ford Focus, 1 Daihatsu, 1 Pontiac Vibe, and 1 Toyota Sienna.
“To ensure a seamless operation towards successful recovery of the stolen vehicles, the Corps collaborated with sister security agencies and state governments to trace and retrieve the vehicles from different parts of the country,” the FRSC spokesman said.
Ogungbemide said that the Corps Marshal Mohammed Shehu had commended personnel for their proactive efforts in recovering stolen vehicles, citing effective inter-agency collaboration and technology integration.
He emphasized FRSC’s commitment to road safety and national security, describing the recoveries as a testament to the corps’ fight against vehicle-related crimes.
