<p>The Adamawa State Police Command has commenced the prosecution of 117 motorists arrested for operating vehicles with unregistered, concealed or tampered number plates across the state.</p>
<p>The command’s spokesperson, SP Suleiman Nguroje, disclosed this in a statement issued on Tuesday, saying the offenders were apprehended during an ongoing enforcement exercise targeting vehicles operating without registration number plates or with concealed, covered, altered, defaced or tampered registration plates.</p>
<p>According to the statement, the operation was carried out by a Special Task Force constituted by the Commissioner of Police, CP Dankombo Morris, and led to the interception of 117 vehicles found to be in violation of vehicle registration regulations.</p>
<p>“The operation, carried out by the Special Task Force constituted by the Commissioner of Police, Adamawa State Command, led to the interception of one hundred and seventeen vehicles found in violation of vehicle registration regulations.</p>
<p>“The offenders were subsequently prosecuted in accordance with extant laws,” the statement read.</p>
<p>The command noted that the use of unregistered and improperly identified vehicles poses serious security threats and undermines efforts aimed at crime prevention, intelligence gathering and public safety.</p>

<p>Nguroje said the Commissioner of Police commended members of the task force for their professionalism and dedication, stressing that the enforcement exercise would be sustained across the state.</p>
<p>“The Commissioner of Police reiterates that the enforcement exercise is not a one-time operation but a continuous statewide exercise. The command will sustain the enforcement and intensify monitoring across the state to ensure full compliance,” he said.</p>
<p>He advised vehicle owners and other road users to properly register their vehicles and ensure that registration number plates are clearly displayed and not concealed, altered or tampered with.</p>
<p>According to the police, violators will continue to face arrest, prosecution and other legal sanctions as provided by law.</p>
<p>The command reaffirmed its commitment to crime prevention and urged residents to support ongoing efforts aimed at enhancing security across the state.</p>
