The Police Command in Ogun says it has apprehended 89 motorists for number plate violations across the state, foiled armed robbery operations, and recovered stolen motorcycles.
The State Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), DSP Oluseyi Babaseyi, disclosed this in a statement on Saturday in Abeokuta.
Babaseyi said the achievements followed sustained intelligence-led policing and enforcement of the Inspector-General of Police’s directive against vehicles operating without registration plates or with obscured number plates.
He said appropriate administrative and legal actions, including prosecution where necessary, had been initiated against the offenders in line with extant laws and procedures.
The spokesman said the Commissioner of Police, Mr Bode Ojajuni, directed Area Commanders, Divisional Police Officers and Tactical Commanders to intensify enforcement of the directive across the state.
