Event Summary

The Nigeria — Nigeria Police Force announced it will resume nationwide enforcement of the tinted glass permit policy from January 2, 2026. This decision, communicated by Benjamin Hundeyin, follows a review of emerging security threats, including a rise in criminal activities using vehicles with unauthorized tinted glass. The Nigeria — Nigeria Police Force clarified that no court order restrains them from enforcing the law, despite a related matter pending in court. The Inspector-General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, assured the public that enforcement would be professional and respectful of citizens' rights. The Canadian Medical Association had previously sued the Inspector-General of Police, labeling the policy illegal and questioning the validity of the Motor Tinted Glass (Prohibition) Act (Decree 1991).
