The Delta State Government has announced the implementation of an existing law requiring owners of public places to install smart surveillance cameras to support crime control efforts.

 

The law, which became operative in July 2020, mandates owners of public places such as shopping malls, eateries, cinemas, and schools to install specified surveillance cameras.

The order is contained in a statement by the Secretary to the State Government, Dr Kingsley Emu, and made available to newsmen in Asaba

 

The government has specified the required camera specifications for outdoor and indoor use, including 4k resolution, night vision, and weather-proof features.

 

Failure to comply with the law attracts a 2-year imprisonment term, a fine of N500,000, and the sealing of the affected premises until compliance is achieved.

 

The government assures residents of its commitment to protecting them but emphasizes the need for collective effort to support security agencies in keeping everyone safe and businesses functional.

 

This initiative aims to enhance security in public places, deter crime, and provide valuable evidence for investigations.
