COURT ISSUES INTERIM ORDER ON TINTED GLASS PERMIT ENFORCEMENT
On 15th December 2025, the Nigeria Police Force announced the resumption of enforcement of the Tinted Glass Permit policy, to take effect from 2nd January 2026, in furtherance of its responsibility for public safety and internal security.
However, subsequent to this announcement, the Nigeria Police Force was served with an interim order of court in Suit No. HOR/FHR/M/31/2025, issued on 17th December 2025, restraining the Force from proceeding with the enforcement of the Tinted Glass Permit policy pending the hearing and determination of the substantive suit or the vacation of the order.
In line with constitutional obligations and respect for judicial authority, the Nigeria Police Force has entered appearance in the matter, raised preliminary objections, and formally applied for the vacation of the interim order. The court has adjourned the case to 20th January 2026 for further proceedings.
Accordingly, and strictly in compliance with the subsisting court order, the Nigeria Police Force has placed the enforcement of the Tinted Glass Permit policy on hold nationwide, pending the decision of the court.
The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Kayode Adeolu Egbetokun, PhD, NPM, affirms that the Nigeria Police Force remains resolute in upholding the rule of law while discharging its primary mandate of protecting lives and property. The Force will continue to deploy lawful, intelligence-driven strategies to address security challenges and safeguard public safety across the country.
Members of the public are assured that the Nigeria Police Force will communicate further developments and issue clear guidance as appropriate following the court’s determination of the matter, in the overriding interest of public order and national security.

@renoomokri Oga Table Shaker. You claimed "it can never happen" to work with Tinubu. Today you ate your words because you are given ambassadorial appointment. Your story tells nobody should be trusted.
🇳🇬 Nigerians, please join the call for @taiwoyedele to come and explain what happened to the tax bill after it was passed by the National Assembly.
You all should recall that on the floor of the House of Representatives, Hon. Abdulsammad Dasuki (PDP, Sokoto) raised a formal Point of Privilege, alleging that the officially gazetted versions of Nigeria’s new tax reform laws DO NOT MATCH the bills that were debated, voted on, and passed by the National Assembly.
Lawmakers say they personally reviewed the gazetted copies and found material differences from the harmonised versions approved by both chambers.
Some of the key discrepancies reported include changes to funding provisions, the introduction of a mandatory 20% DEPOSIT BEFORE APPEALS CAN BE HEARD, provisions ALLOWING ASSET GARNISHMENT WITHOUT COURT APPROVAL, alterations to currency computation rules and empowering tax officers with police-like POWERS OF ARREST AND DETENTION.
Nigerians should note that any alteration of a published law compared with what the National Assembly passed undermines CONSTITUTIONAL GOVERNANCE and sovereignty.
Please join the call for @taiwoyedele to come and provide Nigerians with clarity on what truly happened to the tax bill. #RejectPovertyTax
@GuardianNigeria In the name of politics, they should not be condemned? This is Obi man has no qualities of leadership. Trump will just be laughing at him and his uttrances.
I sent a heartwarming message of felicitation to my predecessor in office, Alhaji Adegboyega Oyetola (@GboyegaOyetola) on the occasion of his 70th birthday celebration. As he entered the mythical 70 circle, I wish him more blessings, long life, good health and prosperity.
On behalf of the government and people of Osun State, we congratulate the newest elder in town as we wish him more years on earth.
Signed:
HE, Senator Ademola Adeleke,
Executive Governor of Osun State.
