The FCT Police Command, according to SP Josephine Adeh, the spokesperson, is deploying additional personnel and equipment for patrols, stop-and-search operations, and surveillance throughout the Federal Capital Territory. This initiative, Adeg disclosed, aims to combat rising incidents of ‘one chance’ and car theft crimes.
“We will be impounding vehicles without registration numbers, with only one plate, or using defaced plates. Regulations regarding covered number plates and tinted glasses will also be enforced.’
“While these operations may cause some inconvenience, they reflect our commitment to the safety of all FCT residents and to deterring criminal activities targeting motorists and passengers”
‘Since launching these measures, we have successfully recovered stolen vehicles and apprehended ‘one chance’ robbers. We appreciate the public’s patience and cooperation during these operations, and we advise vehicle owners to ensure compliance with all regulations”
She disclosed that the FCT Police Command is dedicated to maintaining a secure environment, that residents should report suspicious activities and cooperate with our officers.
