Nigerians are voicing out their displeasure over the new police vehicle registration. Many say they were being forced to bear an unnecessary burden – even after the Police declared on their Facebook page that the registration fee of N3, 500 for vehicles and N1, 500 for tricycles and motorcycles will be paid only once.

They say that it made no sense to bear the burden of a fresh vehicle registration exercise, whereas the data required from them had been captured in the Federal Road Safety Corps ongoing renewal of driving licences and vehicle number plates.
They described it as a misplacement of priority, being unable to figure out why the police wanted another exercise.
Tony Umaru, who visited the Facebook page of the exercise, warned that failure on the part of the Federal Government and the National Assembly to restrain the body from continuing with the exercise, other agencies connected with security and safety would adopt same and commence extortion of the populace.


As the primary agency responsible for internal security, the police should have conducted the registration exercise free of charge, he noted.
He said, “This is absolute nonsense. Very soon the Fire Brigade will launch digital fire extinguishers that will come with a bio-metric chip to capture our data. The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps may also decide to create its own data base. The same thing may apply to the Nigeria Customs Service and the Nigeria Immigration Service.
“Assuming all the processes are free of charge, is the time free? Why can’t all of them go to a central data base and retrieve whatever information they want? If it is not N30,000 for number plate, it will be N3,500 for police bio-metric registration. There is another N2,000 for VIO e-coding. Whereas we still have water, waste and electricity bills to foot. How much do I collect as salary? If I am paying government all this money, what is the government giving me in return?”
