PRESS RELEASE
INTERNAL SECURITY: POLICE REVIEWS ISSUANCE OF TINTED GLASS PERMIT; TRAINS ICT ANALYSTS, ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS NATIONWIDE FOR COMPLIANCE.
In a bid to enhance national security and curb criminal activities facilitated by the misuse of tinted glass, the Nigeria Police Force has concluded its review of the issuance of tinted glass permits, previously banned in June 2022. The ban was initiated due to widespread concerns regarding the role of tinted glass in aiding heinous crimes such as kidnapping, armed robbery, the illegal transportation of firearms, human trafficking etc.
With the proposed lifting of the ban, stringent measures are being implemented to prevent abuse and ensure strict compliance with guidelines governing the issuance and use of tinted glass permits. ICT Analysts and Enforcement Officers nationwide will undergo a comprehensive training scheduled for the 29th of February, 2024, as a prequel to the reopening of tinted glass permit issuance.
The training will equip ICT Analysts and Enforcement Officers with the necessary skills and knowledge to regulate the registration process, guide registrants on the use of the portal where required, attend to complaints from members of the public, and enforce compliance effectively. It will focus on the intricacies of the new guidelines, emphasizing the importance of maintaining a delicate balance between public safety and individual freedoms while safeguarding national security.
The proposed tinted glass permit will incorporate distinctive features aimed at enhancing enforcement efficiency and security. These include a QR code linked to a central database for real-time verification, unique serial numbers correlated with vehicle and owner details, as well as a digital hologram ensuring authenticity and integrity, among other measures.
It is crucial to highlight that the guidelines for the issuance of tinted permits and the use of tinted glass will strictly adhere to the provisions of the MOTOR VEHICLES (PROHIBITION OF TINTED GLASS) ACT 1991 and other relevant extant laws. This strategic approach underscores the commitment of the Nigeria Police Force to prioritize public safety while upholding individual rights and national security interests.
The Nigeria Police Force remains committed to providing updates to the general public on the implementation of the reviewed process of tinted glass permit issuance, ensuring transparency and accountability in its efforts to maintain internal security.

RE: UNCONFIRMED, DEROGATORY GLOBAL RANKING OF NPF
I have recently been tagged to a post by an X account user who uploaded a video ranking the NPF as the most corrupt Police Force in the world. It is indeed disheartening to see the acceptance and circulation of such misleading content without proper scrutiny of its source and credibility. The question arises: on what/whose authority was such a ranking made and what organization conducted it?
Furthermore, disturbingly, the basis for this ranking appears to be rooted in outdated parameters, notably focusing on the disbanded Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS). It is important to highlight that SARS was disbanded in 2020, and using it as the sole criteria for evaluating police practices several years later is both unfair and unjust.
While it is acknowledged that no organization is flawless, the Nigeria Police Force has been steadfast in its commitment to self-cleansing and self-policing. Instances exist where errant officers have been disciplined, demoted, dismissed, and even prosecuted for professional misconduct (we have receipts). Our dedication to transparency and accountability far exceeds that of many other organizations (go and verify).
The dissemination of such defamatory content serves no constructive purpose and only serves to undermine and frustrate the morale of hardworking officers who risk their lives daily to maintain law and order and provide security in our beloved country.
Therefore, I urge everyone to refrain from spreading unfounded allegations and instead support our efforts aimed at enhancing the effectiveness and integrity of the Nigeria Police Force. Report Police misconducts and unsatisfying encounters on any of our complaints channels (check my pinned tweet). It is well. Ire ooo.
@officialkenyk2 @Ebiblosky If you are currently 25 years old and your father is twice your age, then your father is currently 25 * 2 = 50 years old.
When you turn 50 years old, your father will be 50 + 25 = 75 years old.
@officialkenyk2 @Ebiblosky if you will be 50 years old, your father must be at the age of 75 years old, because from the question, it could be grasped that you and your father have an age gap of 25 years.
So 50 + 25 = 75 years old.
I hope this helps.
@officialkenyk2 @Ebiblosky So if youโre 25 years old, your father must be 50 years old. But this does not mean that if you are going to be 50 years old, your father will be 100 years old. Because the word โ2 timesโ, is only a shortened word to describe that your father is 50 years old. So
