BREAKING; All Police convoys nationwide must observe Traffic Regulations – IGP orders Police officers
Acting inspector-general of police, IGP Olukayode Egbetokun said henceforth, all police conveys must observe traffic regulations starting with his convoy.
The IGP gave the directive when he met with Mobile Police Squadron and commanders at the Force headquarters yesterday.
According to him, ”let me end this speech by reminding you that those who keep the peace must be the epitome of peace. Those whose duty it is to enforce the laws of the land must themselves respect and obey the laws of the land. Without obeying the laws, the Police lack the moral high ground to interrogate and bring law breakers to book.
“Consequently, in line with my vision of building a rule of law compliant Police Force, it is my directive that henceforth all police convoys on routine, non-emergency movement, must obey traffic lights and other traffic rules, I pledge to lead by example in this regard. As you will be returning to your various bases, I wish you a safe journey and please be assured of my best wishes always.”
