The Nigeria Police Force has suspended the enforcement of the vehicle tinted glass permit, following a recent court order temporarily halting the exercise.
The spokesperson for the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Command, SP Josephine Adeh, confirmed the suspension during an interview on Africa Independent Television (AIT) on Wednesday.
According to her, the Police are fully complying with the court directive and have ordered all commands and formations to desist from conducting enforcement operations related to the tinted glass permit until further notice.
“The enforcement of the tinted glass permit has been suspended in obedience to a valid court order,” Adeh stated, adding that motorists will not be penalized pending the final determination of the matter.
She, however, urged vehicle owners to continue adhering to other traffic and safety regulations while the issue is being addressed through legal channels.
The suspension brings relief to many motorists who had earlier expressed concerns over the alleged harassment and extortion by some operatives under the guise of enforcing the tinted glass regulation.
