Eko Hot Blog reports that has Nigeria Police Force has confirmed the implementation of the upgraded electronic Central Motor Registry (e-CMR), an information system aimed at enhancing the safety and security of all Nigerians.
The Force Public Relations Officer, Force Headquarters, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, made the confirmation in a statement on Sunday.
He said the initiative is a crucial step towards improving law enforcement capabilities and ensuring the well-being of our citizens.
Adejobi described CMR as a comprehensive system designed to streamline vehicle registration processes with a view to strengthening national security.
He noted that the registry’s full operationalization would facilitate swift and efficient tracking of stolen vehicles, significantly increasing the chances of recovery; leading to “the maintenance of an accurate and up-to-date database of registered vehicles which would aid in the prevention and investigation of vehicle-related crimes such as kidnapping and one-chance activities.”
The police spokesperson added that the system is also designed to make it impossible for stolen vehicles to be re-registered, adding an additional layer of security and discouraging criminals from engaging in such activities.
“To register for the e-CMR, individuals and corporate bodies can visit the official website at cmris.npf.gov.ng. The process is user-friendly, and all residents are urged to take advantage of the convenience it offers by completing the registration from the comfort of their homes,” Adejobi stated.
“While appreciating the cooperation of the public in this crucial initiative, the Inspector-General of Police emphasizes that the NPF is committed to ensuring the welfare of the public, and the e-CMR and other applications designed by the police, like Rescue Me App and Police VGS, are vital tools in achieving this goal.
“The Police acknowledges the concerns about e-CMR enforcement and assures that it would be done in the most professional manner with ample notice for registration by all individuals and corporate bodies.”
The Nigerian police spokesperson also urged all and sundry to spread awareness about e-CMR “for a safer and more secure Nigeria.”
