Lawan Jimeta, the AIG in charge of the zone that includes the states of Edo and Delta, made this announcement in a statement released by DSP Tijani Momoh, the Zonal Police Public Relations Officer, on Saturday in Abuja.
According to Jimeta, the devices are explosive and can cause harm to lives and properties as well as disturb public peace and cause unnecessary panic to residents of the zone.
The AIG also used the medium to extend his Yuletide greetings to the Christian faithful and others in the zone as they celebrate Christmas.
