Eighty paramedics and patrol officers of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) in the south-west states are currently undergoing life-saving rescue training. 

Dauda Biu, FRSC corps marshal, who declared the two-day training open in Ibadan on Wednesday, said the event sponsored by Ford Foundation will enhance the capability of the commission’s personnel in crash management.

He said the training will cover practical sessions on cardiopulmonary resuscitation, basic anatomy and physiology of the human body, management of road traffic injuries and transportation of casualties.

The corps marshal, who was represented by Clement Oladele, assistant corps marshal, said the training underscores the FRSC’s commitment to safer roads.

“The comprehensive curriculum of this programme reflects the commitment of the corps to equip its personnel with the knowledge, skills and confidence necessary to excel in the demanding field of road safety and crash response,” he said.

“The impact of this training on the participants will undoubtedly enhance their ability to administer life-saving measures promptly and effectively.”

In her remarks, Joy Ezezebor, regional director of programmes at Ford Foundation, said the training is in line with the foundation’s readiness to ensure safety of lives on the roads.

“Road safety should be seen as shared responsibility, dedication, collaboration and continuous learning,” she said.

“Emergency response is a collective effort and we must continue to strive to ensure that every life is protected.”
