Stop using police emergency numbers to obtain loans — FCT CP warns
The Commissioner of Police FCT, CP Haruna G. Garba, has warned Nigerians to stop using the command’s emergency numbers to obtain loans from loan shark companies.
Speaking in a statement on Friday, July 28, the CP disclosed that non-state actors had also been engaging the emergency lines.
“The CP enjoins non-state actors who have been engaging the Police emergency lines in their mischievous posts, aimed at misleading members of the public and those submitting same to obtain loans to desist from such and only use the emergency lines for its intended purpose as deliberate steps will be taken to arrest and prosecute the purveyors of these illegal acts,” the statement reads in part.
