PRESIDENT TINUBU TO DIGITALIZE POLICE STATIONS ACROSS THE COUNTRY

The administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has unveiled plans to digitise police stations nationwide through a new connectivity initiative aimed at strengthening law enforcement operations.
The Minister of Communications, Innovation and Digital Economy, Bosun Tijani made the announcement after signing a Memorandum of Understanding with the Nigeria Police Trust Fund.
The Project which he described as BRIDGE, will link police stations to Nigeria’s national fibre backbone, enabling real time data sharing and improved coordination across commands.
Speaking further, the Minister said that the project will also support the deployment of digital tools, including artificial intelligence for incident response, case management, and predictive policing.
Bosun described the move as part of Government efforts to extend Nigeria’s digital transformation agenda to security institutions and improve public safety.
