Citizens can reach the CRU through multiple accessible channels:

The 24/7 availability of the CRU reflects the Nigerian Police Force’s commitment to improving transparency and restoring public confidence in its operations. Whether through phone calls, messages, or online platforms, citizens are encouraged to report any instances of misconduct promptly.

This initiative underscores the importance of collaboration between law enforcement and the public in ensuring justice and promoting ethical policing across Nigeria.
