It said no price increase had been announced, adding that a five-year duration was only added to the three-year driving licence with a cost of N10,350 to give motorists a new option.
The Corps Marshal/Chief Executive Officer, FRSC, Mr. Boboye Oyeyemi, gave the indication while speaking at a workshop in Lagos and warned motorists not to patronise touts.
He described the action of driving with a fake driving licence as a serious offence.
“We have not increased the cost of processing the driving licence. It remains N6,350. What we have done is to give people the option of taking either for three years or five years. The five-year driving licence is available at N10,350,” he said.
Oyeyemi also said the corps would come hard on violators of speed limit, noting that accident rate attributed to the factor was on the increase. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

Give Nigerians a specific account number, in which the said amount could be deposited and the bank teller to be presented to the FRSC for the processing of the driver's licence, or else we won't take you serious.
ReplyDeleteIt is unfortunate that the FRSC boss is calling his boys ''a tout''as if he's not aware that when you go to FRSC office for Driver's licence, the officers will first asked you ''who is helping you?''
I smell HYPOCRISY!

blah, blah, blah. Tell that to your staff who extort from us all and settle you at the top. Many people have paid over N18,000 just to ensure they are captured. My driver has waited 7 months so far to get a license, he is still using a temporary one, which he renews until the permanent one comes. He paid N18,000 for this….smh with all these rogues who are heads of services.
