    The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) on Monday launched a nationwide crackdown on illegal number plates, impounding some 60 vehicles in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) for various offences.

    The special operation, aimed at addressing the growing issue of fake and unauthorized number plates, is part of the FRSC’s broader strategy to enhance road safety and national security. According to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), the crackdown targets individuals using counterfeit, cloned, or expired number plates, which have become a significant security concern

    Speaking to journalists in Abuja, Assistant Corps Marshal (ACM) Hyginus Omeje, who oversees FRSC operations, emphasized the seriousness of the issue. “The use of fake number plates has escalated into a major security challenge. Some individuals are using unauthorized plates, while others have cloned diplomatic number plates, prompting complaints from foreign missions. We are committed to tracing the sources of these illegal plates and holding offenders accountable,” he stated.

    Omeje added that the operation would be extended to other major cities across the country to ensure comprehensive enforcement.

    ACM Godwin Omiko, in charge of Motor Vehicle Administration, highlighted the dangers posed by illegal number plates. “The use of fake, expired, or cloned number plates not only endangers lives and property but also undermines national security. This special intervention patrol is designed to address these violations and restore order on our roads,” he explained.

    Omiko warned that offenders caught using unauthorized number plates, including fake diplomatic plates, expired plates for former public officials, or covered plates, would face prosecution. He urged members of the public to report such violations to the nearest FRSC office.

    The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reported that FRSC teams were deployed to three high-traffic routes in the FCT to carry out the operation. The exercise is part of the corps’ ongoing commitment to maintaining sanity on Nigerian highways and preventing the misuse of number plates for criminal activities.

    Omiko reiterated the FRSC’s dedication to its mandate, stating, “We will not relent in our efforts to enforce compliance and ensure the safety and security of all road users.

    The FRSC called on the public to support the initiative by adhering to vehicle registration laws and reporting suspicious activities. The crackdown underscores the importance of collective responsibility in addressing security challenges and promoting road safety.

    As the operation continues, the FRSC remains steadfast in its mission to eliminate the use of illegal number plates and safeguard the nation’s highways.
