“No One Has The Right To Tint Their Vehicle” FCT Police Bans Vehicles With Tinted Glasses
Due to recent security concerns across the country, the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Command has announced plans to enforce a strict ban on vehicles with tinted glasses.
This decision, aimed at curbing criminal activities and improving public safety, was revealed by the Commissioner of Police, Olatunji Rilwan Disu, during a press briefing at the command’s headquarters in Abuja.
CP Disu emphasized that no individual has the right to tint their vehicle’s windows, pointing out that such modifications have contributed significantly to lawlessness in the country.
He mentioned how tinted glasses have been exploited by criminals to carry out illegal activities undetected, while also preventing timely intervention in emergencies.
He explained, We are clamping down on all commercial vehicles and private cars with tinted windows.
We need to ensure visibility inside vehicles for security reasons.
Many rescued kidnap victims have told us that tinted glasses made it impossible for others to realize they were in distress.
This lack of transparency has been a key factor in prolonging their ordeals.
The Commissioner also raised concerns about the trend of obscured or missing number plates, which are often used by criminals to evade identification.
Some deliberately cover their plates, while others entirely remove them, making it harder for law enforcement to track their activities.
This, according to him, poses a serious challenge to efforts aimed at ensuring public safety.
CP Disu warned residents of Abuja that the police would begin strict enforcement of laws against tinted glasses and other violations.
This is a clear message to all FCT residents that, henceforth, no one has the right to tint their vehicle.
We are fully committed to enforcing this law for the safety of everyone in the territory.
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and ex-Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate Peter Obi are reportedly in talks to join the Social Democratic Party (SDP), according to Adewole Adebayo, the SDP’s presidential candidate in the 2023 elections.
Adebayo revealed this during an interview on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics, where he shared that discussions are ongoing through close associates of both Atiku and Obi. He mentioned that the SDP is open to welcoming them into the fold.
He added that the party had recently admitted a former governor from Kaduna State, who is also a key member of the All Progressives Congress (APC), signaling a shift in the political landscape. Adebayo emphasized that the SDP is experiencing growth as more individuals join, but there is a need for a cultural shift in politics, particularly regarding internal rules and procedures.
When asked directly about Obi’s potential move to the SDP, Adebayo confirmed that while talks are taking place, nothing is official until a formal announcement is made. He mentioned that he had received updates from party officials, including the Financial Secretary, about the ongoing discussions.
Adebayo also stressed that the SDP would only accept politicians who align with the party’s values and adhere to its democratic processes. “If they are willing to follow our transparent and credible internal processes, we can work together to offer Nigerians a real alternative,” he added.
Former Kaduna Central Senator Shehu Sani declines invitation to judge the Miss World Nigeria Beauty Pageant.
It was reported that the position of a judge was offered to Shehu Sani by Ben Murray Bruce, founder of Silverbird Group. However, Sani rejected the offer to judge the event.
Ben Bruce takes to social media to invite the former senator to be present at the event and sit as a judge.
Shebu Sani then responded by stating “You should have send me a formal letter and with full benefits attached to it after I have passed the Judgment. I appreciate the honour from a good friend. Unfortunately, I’ll be unavailable on that day. I wish you a successful outing.”
Nigerian Comedian, Mr Macaroni expresses dissatisfaction with the Governor of Lagos State over traffic issues.
It can be reported that Lagos has been suffering through a serious traffic phase. The reason behind this was revealed to be the Independence Bridge repairs.
Governor Sanwo Olu then pleaded with Lagosians to bear with the traffic as the repair is necessary. “Let’s think outside the box. If you don’t have business to do in Victoria Island in the next 2 to 3 weeks, conduct your business online and plan ahead.”
However, Mr Macaroni reacts to the Governor’s plea by stating “If the government had any regard whatsoever for the people of Lagos, these measures and more extensive ones would have been taken before yesterday to make this process as painless as possible for the people.”
He lamented on the serious effect that this traffic has taken on people’s day to day life and shared that the government didn’t consider its people.
