The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Usman Alkali Baba, has ordered the immediate evacuation of all impounded, accidented and uned exhibit vehicles from Police Stations nationwide.

The order is predicated on the incessant embarrassing and unprofessional manner in which these vehicles are stacked within police facilities causing nuisance and disgusting sight at Police Stations.

The IGP frowns at the practice of stockpiling vehicles recovered from crime scenes or vehicles which their ownership is being contested or in doubt, in police premises with stringent requirements and cumbersome processes for the rightful owners to reclaim them; stressing that such an act would no longer be tolerated as it is tantamount to gross abuse of istrative and judicial processes.

The IGP further emphasizes that heads of police stations and formations should embark on due process to carry out the needful evaluation and release such vehicles in these categories, on bond, to their owners.

The IGP reiterates that the directive is part of efforts being put in place by his istration to ensure conducive working environment for its personnel in order to set in motion such required strategies to combat crime and criminality in the country. The IGP further assures that decongesting the Police Stations and facilities nationwide would be of great operational advantage to the Force in effectively dispensing its policing responsibilities and giving succour to the owners of such exhibit vehicles.

The Inspector-General of Police equally urges all concerned of the public to approach various Police stations/formations for the recovery and claims of their vehicles, with valid proof of ownership and proper means of identification.

But on a serious note. I don't see the need to keep accidented cars in the police station.
For crime scene cars , I can understand.

....i hope the fuel is intact?

One police officer who has been kukuma eyeing one impounded car will now have the opportunity to sell or give it to his brother.

Don't be surprised that they would use seniority on themselves or fight over this.

I could last year when my neighbor's truck brought down an electric pole in Akure city, the Truck was impounded, but on the second day, they couldn't find the battery till Date.����

Police will sell the worse off as metal scrap.
