Police begin enforcement of tinted glass permit nationwide Thursday<\/p>\n
The Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Kayode Egbetokun, has directed the full enforcement of the Tinted Glass Permit (TGP) across the country beginning Thursday, October 2, 2025.<\/p>\n
According to the police, the move is in line with the Motor Vehicles (Prohibition of Tinted Glass) Act, 2004, a key security regulation aimed at curbing criminal activities and safeguarding public safety.<\/p>\n
The IGP noted that the grace period earlier given to motorists to obtain or renew their permits has expired, stressing that all vehicles with tinted glasses must now present valid and verifiable permit documents upon demand by enforcement officers.<\/p>\n
A statement issued on Wednesday by the Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Mohammed Halima, on behalf of the Assistant Inspector-General of Police, Zone 7 Headquarters, Abuja said, \u201cThe Nigeria Police Force, Zone 7 Headquarters, Abuja, acting on the directive of the Inspector-General of Police, IGP Olukayode Adeolu Egbetokun, wishes to inform the general public, particularly residents of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) and Niger States, that the full enforcement of the Tinted Glass Permit (TGP) will commence nationwide on Thursday, 2nd October, 2025.<\/p>\n
Implications for Motorists: Operating a vehicle with tinted glass without an approved permit is now an offence.<\/p>\n
Routine checks will be conducted across FCT and Niger State by designated enforcement teams.<\/p>\n
\u201cDefaulters risk vehicle impoundment and possible legal prosecution.<\/p>\n
\u201cTo avoid sanctions, motorists are strongly advised to apply for or revalidate their Tinted Glass Permit (TGP) via the official police portal: www.possap.gov.ng<\/p>\n
\u201cCompliance with this directive is not only a legal duty but a collective effort toward ensuring public safety and national security. We therefore call on all residents to show patriotism by supporting law enforcement personnel during this exercise.
