Police impound over 25 vehicles with covered plate numbers

The Imo State Police Command in Nigeria impounded over 25 vehicles during a recent operation targeting vehicles with covered, obscured, or missing license plates. The move was described as a proactive security measure aimed at enhancing public safety, improving vehicle traceability, and deterring criminal activities. Commissioner of Police Audu Garba Bosso emphasized that the operation aligns with the National Road Traffic Regulations, 2012, and is supported by legal frameworks including the Police Act, 2020, and the Nigerian Constitution. The police stated that the initiative seeks to prevent criminals from using unregistered or obscured plates to avoid detection, and that all violators—regardless of status—will face legal action. Motorists were urged to ensure their vehicles comply with registration requirements.
