The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) Lagos Sector Command announced the change in leadership of the Command following the resumption of its former Sector Commander, Corps Commander Olusegun Ogungbemide at the National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies (NIPSS) at Kuru Jos. The baton was handed over to Corps Commander Babatunde Farinloye who resumed duties immediately after taking over the mantle of leadership.

Despite this leadership change, the FRSC Lagos Public Education Officer, Supt. Olabisi Sonusi told National Association of Online Security News Publishers, NAOSNP that Lagosians should be assured that there will be smooth deployment and activities of FRSC Lagos personnel for the forthcoming election come Saturday 11th March 2023.

During the handover, CC Olusegun Ogungbemide appreciated Mr Governor, Mr. Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu and the good people of Lagos and other stakeholders for their support while in office. He pleaded that the same gesture be extended to the new Sector Commander. NAOSNP can report that Ogungbemide during his sojourn in FRSC Lagos Command for two years and eight months sustained the enviable apex position of the Lagos Sector as best Sector in HQ assessments. This was recorded four times in consecutive sessions during his tenure. Personally, he bagged the 2022 Best Sector Commander Award.

The new Sector Commander, CC Babatunde Farinloye is from Ilesa East Local Area of Osun State and happily married with children. He attended Community Primary school in Kwara State, Erin Ile Secondary School also in Kwara State, and the prestigious University of Lagos (UNILAG) where he studied Educational Administration.

In a bid to empower his career capacity, he attended the following courses:
Officers Basic Course in Awgu, Enugu, 1996, Train the trainers Course at FRSC Academy Jos, 2008 and Computer appreciation course at ESUT Enugu, 2012.

Professionally, Farinloye was the Head (Driving Proficiency Centre) Marshal Inspectorate Training school Owa Alero before his promotion to the rank of Corps Commander and he was posted as the Sector Commander FRSC Lagos Sector Command.

In his address to Heads of departments, Officers and Men of the Sector during parade on Monday 27th February, 2023, he said ‘nothing will change but all hands must on desk to ensure that Corps mandate is achieved’. Farinloye therefore charged the staff not to lower the standard of taking Lagos Command to an enviable position during his tenure. He then released his direct line to the public.
