Police: Phone call at filling stations now a criminal offense



The Nigerian police have declared phone calls at filling stations a criminal offence which could land the offender in jail.

The Force Public Relations Officer, Jimoh Moshood, said that an offender could be prosecuted and jailed for attempted arson.

He noted that police officers have the authority to arrest anyone found making phone calls or smoking at filling stations.

He described the filling station as a public facility where motorists cannot act as they like on account of the inflammable products like petrol and other petroleum products being dispensed there.
