The Nigeria Police Force, NPF, 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, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, said the initiative is a crucial step towards improving law enforcement capabilities and ensuring the well-being of our citizens.
“CMR is a comprehensive system designed to streamline vehicle registration processes with a view to strengthening national security.
“Its full operationalization would facilitate swift and efficient tracking of stolen vehicles, significantly increasing the chances of recovery; lead 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 involving,” he said
According to him, the system is also designed to make it impossible for stolen vehicles to be re-registered, adding a layer of security and discouraging criminals from engaging in such activities.
He further disclosed that to register for the e-CMR, individuals and corporate bodies can visit the official website at https://cmris.npf.gov.
Noting that the process is user-friendly, he urged Nigerians to take advantage of the convenience it offers by completing the registration from the comfort of their homes.
“The NPF is committed to ensuring the welfare of the public, and the e-CMR and other applications designed by the police, like the Rescue Me App and Police VGS, are vital tools in achieving this goal,” he added.
The statement acknowledged the concerns about e-CMR enforcement and assured that it would be done in the most professional manner with ample notice for registration by all individuals and corporate bodies.
