Policemen have their own POS machines which they move around with. This directive won't achieve anything.
Or they will surfer police victims, instead of punishing those caught in the act.

Nigerians are funny! Leaving the anus that fart to knock the head...


So what about other businesses around stations , so they should be in lack of cash in this digital economy


The best way is reorient the police and also do punitive measures

Truth is nigeria we have now will never be used to modern technologies,we have not evolved to that level and sincerely will never evolve to it...a place where hunger and violence is the order of the day u want to give out body cams to olokpa
Re: IGP Bans POS Operators Within 200 Metres Of All Police Stations In Nigeria by themanderon: 8:56am On May 13
This changes nothing. Installing body cameras to beam life feeds or at least record the activities of our beautiful men in black will go a long way to reducing criminality amongst them.
Re: IGP Bans POS Operators Within 200 Metres Of All Police Stations In Nigeria by dinkyicon: 8:57am On May 13
will it stop extortion , NO, it will only place the victim in more hardship cos police will never stop. the CP and other high ranking police officers are part of it, even the IGP is only doing initial Gra gra......if you know you know, i have been involved in several cases

According to the signal, the police authorities expressed concern over what they described as the increasing presence of POS operators around police facilities and allegations linking some of them to corrupt practices and extortion.
The corrupt police will go 200meters away from the Police Stattiins and continue with their bribery and extortion.

No one knows hiw this will solve the extortiin of innocent citizens by the appointee of a faaaake certttifficcate hollldderr
Re: IGP Bans POS Operators Within 200 Metres Of All Police Stations In Nigeria by AKWATGOLD1(m): 8:59am On May 13
Physical presence around Police Station is not what matters? Please note that the Police still has their account number which transaction can done remotely.

BIGTinfotech:
They can stay within 201m of the police stations.
Great idea.
no mind that guy.

Police that has POS traders account and phone numbers saved as beneficiary in his phone doesn't need to move an inch.

will the IGP go around checking every officer's phone too?

This policy only shows the daftness of some of our public officials. First, innocent POS business owners that stay within 200 miles will have to suffer for a weird and daft idea that is clearly ineffective. Also, aren't there better ways of addressing the criminalities that are perpetrated by these evil men in black.
