Enugu bans unauthorised use of vehicles with tinted glasses

Motorists have been advised to shun the use of tinted glasses on their vehicles.

The government dropped the hint today in a public service announcement made by Prof Chidiebere Onyia, the Secretary to the State Government, SSG, on Monday and circulated to newsmen. Below is the detail of the public service announcement:

“In line with its determination to combat the nefarious activities of kidnappers and other criminal elements, the Enugu State Government hereby bans the unauthorized use of vehicle-tinted glasses in the state.

The ban shall take effect after four (4) weeks of this notice, with consequent enforcement starting on Monday, September 4, 2023.”

“This is to give owners of vehicles with tinted glasses, who did not obtain Police Tinted Permits before the suspension of its issuance by the Nigeria Police Force on 7th June 2021, sufficient time to have them removed or replaced (if they are factory-fitted), in accordance with the provisions of the law.

Defaulting vehicles shall be impounded by the enforcement task force and shall not be released to their owners until the tinted glasses are removed or replaced, and the specified fines paid.”

“It is important to reiterate that the ban is primarily aimed at curtailing the activities of criminals and to generally enhance the security and safety of the good people and residents of Enugu State. We, therefore, solicit the understanding and cooperation of the general public in this regard.”
