When it comes to processing and getting car number plates, the Federal Road Safety Corps has urged the public to stay away from touts and unlicensed merchants.
In a statement published by the Corps Public Education Officer, Bisi Kazeem, on Friday in Abuja, the Corps Marshal, Boboye Oyeyemi, declared as much.
The FRSC’s principal function in improving national security, according to Oyeyemi, is rigorous information collecting tied to its National Vehicle Identification Scheme, among other things.
This warning came as a result of reliable information gleaned from the continuing statewide crackdown on the rising number of cases of unregistered number plates in circulation, according to him.
“The special operation has so far revealed that a number of the motoring public are completely ignorant of the implications of using unauthorised number plates.
“Hence their continuous patronage of touts for their vehicle registration and identification processes,” he said.
Oyeyemi noted that the FRSC, as a custodian of important national intelligence infrastructure, had repeatedly advised the public to obtain their car number plates through competent agencies.
This, he explained, was due to the fact that correct car registration aided not only road safety but also national security.
The FRSC boss went on to say that the Corps would not allow any road user to be used as an instrument for breaking the laws and regulations that govern vehicle operation in the country.
He said, “The relevance of the National Vehicle Indentification Scheme in enhancing national security cannot be over emphasised at this critical time of our national development.
“As such, vehicle owners must endeavour to ensure that when registering their vehicles, the appropriate channel is religiously followed and third party involvement should be completely avoided in all aspect of vehicle registration”
“Accordingly, all Number Plates produced by the FRSC can only be obtained by vehicle owners from the Motor Licensing Authorities of the various States and the FCT.
“Anything outside this makes you vulnerable to obtaining fake and unauthorsied vehicle identification and such vehicles can not be captured in the NVIS portal.”
