Malam Mohammed Bala Ahmed, Police Commissioner in charge of the Cross River State Police Command, has disclosed that intelligence reports have revealed that deadly guns that are operated via phone are now available in the country.

He said the phone guns which are manufactured in America and some European countries, have the lethal capacity to hit targets over one thousand yards away and could wreak havoc with the same capacity of any other shot gun.

The Police Commissioner said the European law enforcement agencies have condemned Global System Mobile phone manufacturers for inventing the decoy, which he said, security operatives are battling hard to stop its distribution in Nigeria.

The Police Public Relations Officer, Cross River State Police Command, Mr. Etim Dickson, who took his turn to comment on the phone, said there was the need for members of the public to be vigilant, in order to report any person found with the phone-gun to the nearest police station or any other security agency.

Worried about the situation, Mr. Dickson, said the Nigeria Police have already taken steps to check the distribution of the phones in the country, as security activities have been beefed up at the various airports, seaports and other entry points to screen every mobile phone that may be imported into the country.

Giving graphic description of the phone, the PPRO said the handgun cum cell phone has .22 calibre ammunition, operated with the help of the keypad.

He said the decoy has four rounds of ammunition can fire in rapid succession, with the help of the keypad trigger.

According to the police image maker, the keypad of the phone has digits number 5 to 8 as the trigger, with high destructive power.

At first sight, he said, the gun appeared to be like normal cell phone, but has extra weight when lifted up, explaining that the weapon has an in-built bullet magazine.
