The Ogun State Police Command has commenced a statewide enforcement operation against vehicles operating with covered, obscured, defaced, concealed, unauthorised, fake, or no registration number plates, as part of efforts to strengthen security and curb criminal activities across the state.

The enforcement exercise, which follows a directive from the Inspector-General of Police, is aimed at preventing criminals from exploiting vehicle anonymity to perpetrate crimes and evade detection.

Announcing the operation on Friday, the Police Public Relations Officer of the Ogun State Command, DSP Oluseyi Babaseyi, said the State Commissioner of Police, Bode Ojajuni, had directed all Area Commanders, Divisional Police Officers, and Tactical Team Commanders to strictly enforce compliance with the directive.
