<\/p>\nOyeyemi disclosed this to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) while inspecting the screening exercise at Ikeja 9 Brigades Military Cantonment in Lagos on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn any uniform service, you are not supposed to have tattoo on your body; likewise twisted eyes, bow, K\u2019 legs and flat foot are not allowed in the service.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is because anybody with bow and K\u2019 legs will not be able to stand and walk for a long period of time.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn uniform service, you must be able to walk and run long distances in case of emergency.<\/p>\n
To save life, you will be required to walk long distances and you won\u2019t be able to perform your duty if you have \u201cK\u201c or flat leg.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have patrol duties for eight hours and rescue exercise can take up to five hours and if you are not fit you can\u2019t do it.<\/p>\n
\u201cLikewise pregnant and married women, we can\u2019t take them because that is the rule for uniform services,\u201d Oyeyemi said.<\/p>\n
The FRSC boss said that the screening had been going on smoothly across the country.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have states that have high concentration of applicants, like Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Abuja, Kaduna, Benue, Lagos, Enugu and Oyo.<\/p>\n
He expressed satisfaction with the progress made so far in the exercise.<\/p>\n
Oyeyemi commended the Nigerian Army, Nigerian Air Force, Police, Civil Defence and the Department of State Security Service (DSS) for their maximum support for the success of the screening.\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
