Speaking on Friday at a meeting with Assistant Inspectors-General of Police in charge of the 12 zonal commands in Nigeria, Abubakar said the process of “obtaining tinted glass permit is free of charge, and there is no amount of money written there for anybody to pay.”
According to him., “Motorists should not allow any policeman, anywhere to subject them to paying charges that are not officially, legally and legitimately stated.”
The News Agency of Nigeria, NAN, reported that the clarification of the IG was against the backdrop of renewed clampdown on motorists driving vehicles with tinted glasses nationwide.
Abubakar, however, said that those complaining about the clampdown were not sincere as they know that “by all standards they do not deserve to have tinted glass vehicles’’.
He said that the police would enforce the ban as it was meant for the good of all Nigerians.
The police boss said that to avoid abuse in the granting of the permit, the law only authorised the IG to issue it without delegating such power to commands commissioners of police.
