The Corps Marshal, Federal Road Safety Corps, FRSC, Dr. Boboye Oyeyemi has commended the Inspector General of Police, IGP Usman Alkali Baba over the bold step on the total ban of SPY number plates and immediate reversal to the original registered number plates.
In a statement signed by the Corps Public Education Officer, Bisi Kazeem, and released to the National Association of Online Security News Publishers, (NAOSNP), the Corps Marshal, Boboye while commending the IGP on the ban of SPY number plates directed Commanding Officers of the Corps across the nation to join hands with the Police Force to enforce the order and ensure that no stone is left unturned in the enforcement of the order.
According to him, road users who also parade faded number plates should endeavor to replace them with new ones to avoid impounding their vehicles.
Oyeyemi further ordered full force and immediate impoundment of private vehicles that are using commercial number plates
He reiterated the implications of the continues use of faded and other unauthorized vehicle number plates to national security.
In his statement, the use of the SPY and other unauthorized number plates to continually violate traffic rules and regulations must be brought to a halt, hence the directive given to Commanding Officers to brace up and ensure that they give adequate priority to the enforcement.
