The Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) has reacted to the Nigerian Police Force’s plan to resume the strict enforcement of the suspended tinted glass permit policy.

The President of the NBA, Afam Osigwe, in a statement, accused the police of disregarding the rule of law.

“A press release dated 15th December 2025, issued by the Force Public Relations Officer, CSP Benjamin Hundeyin, announcing the reactivation of the enforcement of the suspended tinted glass permit policy with effect from 2nd January 2026, has once again confirmed the sad reality that the Nigeria Police Force, despite being the foremost law enforcement agency in Nigeria, continues to exhibit a troubling disregard for the rule of law and the due process it is constitutionally mandated to uphold.

“The press release not only amounts to executive recklessness but also portrays the Nigeria Police Force and its leadership as lacking in respect for the court, the rule of law, and due process of law,” the NBA said.

Recall that the Force announced through its Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, that the enforcement of the tinted glass permit policy would resume in January, citing a surge in vehicle-related crimes.

Hundeyin said the decision “follows a careful review of emerging security concerns and the need to ensure the safety of all citizens.”
