Worried by the increasing security breaches occasioned by politicians who use government vehicle number plates in the state, the administration of Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, yesterday, ordered the beneficiaries to return them as failure to do so will amount to acting in a manner likely to sabotage government.
In a statement signed and made available to newsmen by the Chief Security Officer, CSO, Government House, Enugu, CSP F.N. Ogarabe, which read, ”In view of the security implication of such abuse, the affected persons are advised to return the number plates to the Office of the Chief Security Officer to the Governor, Lion Building, Government House, Enugu, on or before 31st January.
“Those whom government vehicles earlier assigned to them were monitized but are still retaining the official inscription of the state government numbers on the vehicles, are equally advised to erase the numbers and replace them with private number plates within the same time frame.
“Defaulters will be handed over to the Security Agencies for appropriate action”
