“However, whenever it happens, the perpetrator would definitely face the wrath of the law,” he said.
Uga also said it was an offence for an FRSC operative to assault any motoring public, and anyone engaged in such an act would be charged for an offence against members of the public.
The sector commander noted that the FRSC was not a conquering force but operatives to maintain sanity on the highways.
