      Why should u even call it without having a case of emergency. That number is not meant to be dialed anyhow, unless u have an actual case of emergency. By trying it, u may have knocked off someone with a real need for help. Little wonder the line was busy as so many people like u just decided to dial it for dialing sake. Don't do that next time, okay?

    They should fix road first and give the rural areas access able roads before introducing this emergency number and hope they will not be asking for bribe before they carry out their duty especially in the rural areas. Because I noticed that even if the Nigerian Police is corrupt in the rural areas when you visit Abuja you see that the police there is different from the ones outside Abuja. Though I still pray this iniative works out. May it not die like NITEL
