“A total number of 764 complaints was recorded in the Q3 2017. With Lagos State Command topping the state Ranking table with 180 (23.56%), followed by Rivers State with 102 (13.35%) and FCT-Abuja 87 (11.39%). Sokoto and Plateau State Commands recorded no complaint in the period under review. In all, Phone call was the most preferred channel by members of the public for lodging complaints with 447 (58.5%), WhatsApp 203 (26.57%), Twitter 19 (2.49%), Facebook 6 (0.71%), SMS 3 (0.39%), BBM 1 (0.13%) and others (Written Petition, Media Publications etc.) 29 (3.80%).
“Several massive sensitization campaigns were carried out in selected states. Helicopter airdrops were carried out in Kano and Kaduna States. Face-to-face dissemination was carried out in Borno and Ondo States by PCRRU agents. Most of which was achievable with the collaboration and support received from our partners which have provided for a notable increase in the rate of engagement between PCRRU and members of the public in Q3 2017 (i.e. July – September) than in the same period in 2016.
“Efforts are ongoing to upgrade the PCRRU Call Centre so as to improve the efficiency of the unit. Remember, Bail is Free. PCRRU says No To Impunity.”
