The Nigeria Police has issued a 14-day notice to vehicle users to register for the digitalized Central Motor Registry (e-CMR).
The police said the move was part of the efforts of the Inspector-General of Police, IGP Kayode Egbetokun, to enhance the security of lives and property.
It said the enforcement which will commence on the 29th of July, 2024, is to rejuvenate and digitalize the motor vehicle registration system.
According to a statement yesterday by the Force Public Relations Officer, ACP Muyiwa Adejobi, “The e-CMR is an advanced, real-time online repository of motor vehicle data, designed to support police investigations, operational activities, and combat vehicle-related crimes, including terrorism, banditry, kidnapping, and armed robbery.
“The transition to a digitalized system will streamline the documentation and verification processes for vehicle ownership and related transactions.
“Following the directives of the IGP, services such as change of ownership, change of license number, change of engine, and change of chassis/body would become seamless as the e-CMR system would ensure the validation of vehicle genuineness and ownership.
“It will also enhance the ability to track and recover stolen vehicles effectively, and prevent the purchase of stolen vehicles by innocent buyers.
“Prior to the enforcement itself, the IGP has ordered full publicity of the e-CMR and its enforcement to all members of the public intimating them of the requirements, processes, and the enforcement procedures.
‘Members of the public are urged to obtain the digitalized CMR certificate online at https://cmris.npf.gov.ng”.
