Nigerian Police Uses Cctv Images To Capture Bank Robbery Syndicate -

When will we hear on radio/tv or even read on daily newspaper where olokpa arrest those stealing with pen? na only road side criminal dem fit catch   

make dem (olokpas) go secretly mount such cameras & voice recording in dia (our politicians) various offices

The Idea is not novel, yes it is necessary but are we sure that the CCTV initiative is just not another 'blue elephant' scheme, foisted on our intelligence to make it seem as if the reigning government has plans to fight crime.

1: Security Cameras such as ones installed require some investment in large data storage and trained security agents and IT staff.
2: They also require to a (large extent)  a de-centralized Police force that can independently manage crime in each state or LG with a detailed profile of criminals and their movement around Nigeria while sharing information with other security agencies and government bodies across Nigeria

I heard we have a little over 340,000 police men in the Nigeria Police Force, what percentage is trained to evaluate data from CCTVs and other modern day security technologies.

I would rather a bunch of police checkpoints than CCTV cameras, at least it should deter the robbers briefly enough to escape the scene before the police do and leave you behind.

AS we always say, Let us sit-down and watch

    My stand is that the Lagos State government has done well by installing CCTV to monitor activities in the metropolis and to track criminals.

Did I not insinuate this before?. Where are Kobojunk and NuzoJunkie that called me a dreamer?

Where is the link to support your claim?, How can u make such a claim without proof, ure so full of Sh_t!

In this time and age,
WE are rejoicing cos a group of armed bandits were caught on camera?
Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn, 
This is the stone age,   

From parading animal criminal suspects to matching faces in CCTV footages with individuals on a non-existent database is so incredible.
The Police is your friend.

@ kobojunkie n others,
First things first,those so called CCTV your talking about are outdated,they dont produce clear images,they dont even zoom in,some just produce movements and you really cant get the persons face,n if the robber is smart he would know where to stand in the hall.some CCTV/BETAMAX TV in banks really are dummies.Now,with your streamlined veiw, did it occur to u that the person behind the operations of the CCTV saw the activities of the robbers in the hall and alerted the police when no other person in the hall could make a move??there probably was no need for database and identification,abeg, please stop making a big meal out of Kuli-kuli!!!!

This one na im them dey call. . .  Oje marina, ki'go gun mi le'se ki'be ma se'je! 

Na now there eyes open to see will.

Nigeria. . .kai 

i watched it live, it was like nollywood doing a decent robbery crime movie.

If only the CCTV could be used to identify police men collecting money from motorists and IG can eliminate those thieves called policemen on our roads, we  would know that he is working . A policeman that obtains N20 can steal CCTV kept to help him do his work well.

Do not despise little beginnings. Yes CCTV is not a new technology, but at least Naija has now recognised its role in crime detection. We will get there.

Oh? So Naija was, all the while, too stupid and moronic to recognize that all those SECURITY camera’s installed for  SECURITY purposes in banks, and businesses, for almost 20 years, could play in a role in CRIME DETECTION?

Are you for real? You mean you are willing to sell Nigerians all as MORONS so you can justify your need to praise this effort of the police today?

WOW!!
