The FRSC Sector Commander in Kwara, Mr Fredrick Ogidan, made the appeal while inaugurating The Special Marshal Unit of the Kwara State University (KWASU) in Malete.

The KWASU Vice Chancellor, Prof. Mustapha Akanbi, also urged the special marshals to be good ambassadors of the institution and work towards achieving the goals and objectives of the unit.

Akanbi, who was also represented by the Deputy Vice Chancellor Administration, Prof. Omololu Fapojuwo, advised the special marshals to uphold their calling by educating the citizens on excesses on public roads.
