The Nigeria Police Force (NPF) has unveiled an App, Police VGS Quick Emergency Report and Response System (QERRS), to revolutionise swift and efficient emergency reporting and response of the force in tackling dimensions of crime and criminalities in the country.
The acting Inspector-general of Police, Olukayode Egbetokun, while speaking at the unveiling of the app, Tuesday in Abuja, he noted that the Police-VGS app is an additional option to the already launched C4i-NPF Rescue Me App, all purposed to make policing smart and efficient in critical situations,
Egbetokun further urged every resident of Nigeria to embrace the innovation wholeheartedly, stressing that its adoption will impact policing services significantly.
“The Police-VGS QERRS is an application that has been modelled to ensure prompt response and referral in the event of emergencies such as accidents, natural disasters, medical emergencies, criminal incident reporting, intelligence sharing.
“With the swipe of a button on a phone, emergency notifications will be sent directly to a dedicated team of police operatives who will ensure a swift, live, and coordinated response to reach in the shortest possible time.
“The Police-VGS app is a lifeline that can make all the difference in saving lives, combating the menace of crime, and securing our communities,” the IGP stated.
