The Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Usman Baba, has launched the portal for the report of stolen vehicles, Central Motor Registry (CMR) Command Centre, at the Force Headquarters in Abuja.
The centre is domiciled at the Department of Information and Communication Technology.
According to a statement issued on Wednesday by the Force Public Relations Officer, Muyiwa Adejobi, the development was in line with the IGP’s quest to ensure a digital environment for policing the country for robust and more proactive measures in crime prevention, investigation, and prosecution.
Adejobi stated that the newly digitalised Central Motor Registry Command Centre will make it possible for members of the public to report vehicles stolen from January 1, 2018, and yet-to-be-recovered to input the vehicle details on the online platform to serve as a reliable data point for the possible recovery of the vehicle.

He noted that the report portal will also process motor vehicle information to support police operations and efforts toward enhancing national security.
The digitalisation of the CMR was completed with 2 Command Centres in Abuja and Lagos, 37 CMR Information Centres across the country, and in the Federal Capital Territory, and 200 e-Enforcement Operational Patrol Vehicles with automatic number plate recognition on each vehicle as part of the first batch.
He quoted the IGP as urging Nigerians and other residents of the country to take advantage of the platform at https://reportcmr.npf.gov.ng to upload their vehicle information on the website with effect from December 7, 2022, as a security step for preventing it from being stolen and re-registered.
