The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Usman Alkali Baba, psc (+), NPM, fdc, has encouraged Nigerians to take advantage of its crime reporting mobile application known as ‘NPF Rescue Me’ to effectively report emergencies, criminal activities, and professional misconducts of Police Officers for rapid and immediate reaction by operatives of the Nigeria Police Force.
The IGP, who confirmed that the app had been upgraded, urged the public to download the app on their phones and input some required information for improved services and their safety.
In a statement issued on Saturday by the Force Spokesperson, CSP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, the IGP maintained that the app redefines security and personalizes policing.
“The IGP emphasizes that the NPF Rescue Me App, which is a great improvement, redefines security and personalizes policing, enabling android and ios users to download the app from the various app stores, registering with their details, and having access to a variety of features including emergency services, crime reporting, navigation, ambulances services, among others.
“The application also has an emergency button which when depressed alerts operatives at the Nigeria Police National Command and Control Centre who would immediately send out the required assistance to victims irrespective of their locations within the country.
“The Inspector-General of Police reiterates that his administration is poised to explore the use of cutting-edge technology to take combating crime and responding to emergencies to an entirely new level,” the statement read.
