The Delta State Police Command has reaffirmed its commitment to uncompromising enforcement of traffic laws in the state, cautioning that drivers who violate regulations will face stringent penalties.
Deputy Commissioner of Operations in Delta, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, stated this in a release on Sunday, highlighting that the state government has set up seven mobile courts to adjudicate traffic-related offences.
He added that these mobile courts will collaborate closely with the police to ensure enforcement is conducted effectively and professionally.
Speaking on the enforcement measures, Adejobi explained that every vehicle on Delta roads must be properly registered and display number plates clearly.
He stated, “All vehicles on Nigerian roads must be properly registered with the FRSC, and their number plates must be clearly displayed.
“The number plates must not be obscured in any way, and the use of sirens by unauthorised persons or groups is strictly prohibited.”
Adejobi further emphasized that every vehicle must be licensed, and drivers are required to carry the necessary documents, including photocopies of vehicle papers, for inspection whenever requested by law enforcement officers.
He warned that failure to comply with these requirements would attract legal action.
“Every vehicle must be licensed, and its papers (photocopy) must be tendered on demand by law enforcement officers at any time. Every driver behind the wheel must have and possess a valid driver’s license. No reckless driving on our roads,” he stated.

In addition, the Deputy Commissioner emphasised the importance of respecting traffic regulations and law enforcement personnel.
He urged motorists to view the enforcement measures as essential for maintaining order and safety on the state’s roads.
He added, “Obey all traffic regulations and respect law enforcement officers. Take note of these guidelines and let them guide your conduct.”
Adejobi, a former Force Public Relations Officer, also appealed to the public to cooperate with traffic authorities, warning that the Delta Police Command will continue to pursue traffic violators across the state through the mobile courts.
