Nigeria Police to Resume Tinted Glass Permit Enforcement

The Nigeria Police Force has announced plans to resume enforcement of the Tinted Glass Permit starting January 2, 2026. CSP Benjamin Hundeyin, the Force’s Public Relations Officer, stated that the decision follows a review of security concerns and is aimed at ensuring public safety.

The police clarified that no court order had restrained enforcement and that the earlier suspension was intended to give motorists time to regularise their documentation. However, gaps in compliance have reportedly been exploited by criminals for activities including armed robbery and kidnapping, prompting the need for renewed enforcement.

Inspector-General of Police, IGP Kayode Adeolu Egbetokun, assured the public that enforcement will be carried out professionally, respecting citizens’ rights and following legal procedures. Motorists are urged to apply for Tinted Glass Permits through approved channels to ensure compliance.
