Police impound 100 vehicles over non-registration, unauthorised sirens
Operatives of the Delta State Police Command have impounded 100 vehicles for non-registration, the use of unauthorised sirens and revolving lights, and the use of covered number plates.
The command’s spokesperson, Bright Edafe, in a post on X on Friday, said the clampdown was based on the need to be proactive and prevent crime ahead of the yuletide.
Mr Edafe said, “In this yuletide season, and with the need to be proactive and prevent crime, the Delta State Police Command has commenced the enforcement of a total clampdown on the unauthorised use of sirens, revolving lights, covered number plates, and unregistered vehicles.
“So far, about one hundred vehicles have been impounded. Deltans who fall short of this should ensure compliance to avoid their vehicles getting impounded.”
