Rising Crime Rate: Report Anyone Seen With Live Ammunitions – Police

The Police Force Public Relations Officer, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, has urged Nigerians to report anyone seen with live ammunition to curb arms proliferation in Nigeria. 

In a statement shared on Sunday on his official X account with pictures of live ammunition, Adejobi said, “These are live ammunitions, called “èpà” or “groundnuts” in the streets.

“They are deadly, not to be seen with anyone except security agents. Statutory security agents, no other ones.

“If you see them with any friend or civilian, please expose him or her. We need to collectively curb the proliferation of arms and ammunition in Nigeria.”
