The Police Commissioner, Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Command, Mr. Benneth Igweh, has ordered a clampdown on vehicles without number plates or with a single number plate plying FCT roads.
He gave the directive when he met with members of the management team, leaders of all tactical units, and heads of departments of the FCT Police Command, comprising area commanders and divisional police officers, on Saturday.
The FCT CP also tasked the heads of the tactical units to identify black spots and possible kidnappers’ dens in the territory and ensure they take the fight to them.
A statement by the FCT Police Public Relations Officer, SP Josephine Adeh, made available to Persecondnews on Sunday said: “The Commissioner of Police FCT, Benneth Igweh, met with the management team, leaders of all tactical units, and heads of departments of the FCT Police Command, comprising area commanders and divisional police officers, on Saturday.
“The meeting, which he deemed necessary, is aimed at revamping the approach of the already existing security framework and setting in motion the plan to ensure the safety of residents in the Federal Capital Territory.”
