Written by on July 14, 2022
The Commissioner of Police in Enugu State, Mr Lawal Abubakar, has tasked the police personnel in the command on respect for human rights while enforcing the ban on the use of SPY number plates.
The state’s Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Daniel Ndukwe, said this in a statement issued on Thursday in Enugu following the beginning of the enforcement in the state.
The commissioner charged supervisory officers to ensure that police operatives carrying out the enforcement duty do so with utmost sense of diligence and professionalism, devoid of all forms disrespect for the rights of the citizens.
He directed the X-Squad Section of the Command to monitor the enforcement process and ensure that the police operatives completely comply with the letter and spirit of the directive.
He enjoined residents, particularly those who hitherto had been using the banned number plates to cooperate with the police in this regard, “as the ban is solely aimed at strengthening security in the state and the nation at large”.
