Having Issues With Your Driving License? These Are Numbers to Call

Nigerians are always in hurry, we believe that time is money and so every minute counts. This is evident on our roads, the way drivers drive and lots more.

Nothing frustrates car owners, drivers than having your driving license delayed. Due to the longevity and delay in getting the FRSC driving license, many have been forced to patronize those who will help to get it in done on time thereby paying extra.

Last week some FRSC officials are guest on Lagos Traffic radio and they discussed extensively on what is causing the delay in FRSC drivers' license and how to check if your license is ready or not and when it's taking a longer period of time.
