E-CMR: Police to End Roadside Document Checks – Adejobi

The Nigeria Police Force has announced that with the implementation of the digital Central Motor Registry Information System (e-CMR), officers will no longer need to stop vehicle owners to check their documents.

The Force Public Relations Officer, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, shared this update on Wednesday night via his account on the X platform, explaining that police officers will now be equipped with advanced technology to verify vehicle documents in real time.

Adejobi noted that once the e-CMR is fully operational, vehicle owners and users will no longer need to carry physical documents, as all necessary information will be stored digitally.
