FRSC Mourns Former Corps Marshal Dauda Ali Biu

The Corps Marshal of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), Shehu Mohammed, has expressed deep sorrow over the death of former Corps Marshal, Dauda Ali Biu, describing his passing as a painful loss to the Corps, the road safety community and Nigeria.

Mohammed, in a condolence message, said he received the news of Biu’s death with profound shock and sadness, noting that the late road safety chief left behind a legacy of dedication, discipline and commitment to public service.

He extended the condolences on behalf of the FRSC management and entire workforce to the deceased’s immediate family, friends, associates and all those who benefited from his service.

According to the Corps Marshal, Biu’s contributions to the growth and development of the FRSC remain an enduring part of the institution’s history, adding that his death represents the loss of not only a former leader but also a seasoned professional who devoted a significant part of his life to the service of humanity.

Late Dauda Ali Biu, who joined the FRSC during its formative years, rose through the ranks to become the seventh substantive Corps Marshal. He served in the position from July 2022 to May 2024, during which his leadership was associated with the Corps’ mandate of promoting road safety, strengthening operational effectiveness and advancing institutional development.

Mohammed noted that Biu’s experience and understanding of the Corps’ responsibilities earned him a place of honour in its institutional history, stressing that his contributions would remain part of the foundation upon which the FRSC continues to build.

The Corps Marshal acknowledged the pain of the loss to the deceased’s family and loved ones, assuring them of the solidarity of the FRSC community during this difficult period.

He prayed that Almighty Allah would forgive the shortcomings of the departed officer, grant him Aljannah (Paradise) and give his family and loved ones the strength to bear the irreparable loss.

“Rest in peace, Dauda Ali Biu. Your service to the nation will not be forgotten,” Mohammed said.

The FRSC community joins his family, friends and associates in mourning a former leader whose years of service were dedicated to road safety administration and national development.
