The sector commander of the Federal Road Safety Corps, Nasarawa Sector Command, Corps Commander Lucie Samuel Mhii, Monday, said any vehicle with covered plate numbers would be impounded and fined.
Cmmdt Mhii stated this in Lafia during a briefing to address the growing concerns regarding covered vehicle plates and the associated security risks.
According to her, covering vehicle number plates undermines security protocols and poses a significant threat to public safety.
The increasing prevalence of covered number plates is unacceptable as it facilitates criminal activities and obstructs law enforcement efforts, she said.
She added that the command is implementing a comprehensive strategy, including aggressive public enlightenment campaigns, advocacy visits, and courtesy visits to stem the tide.
She said, “These measures aim to educate the motoring public about the dangers of using covered number plates. Additionally, the command will begin the immediate apprehension and booking of vehicles with covered number plates to curb this threat.”
She called on the public to cooperate with the command in addressing “this security risk and to refrain from covering their vehicle number plates”.
