Nigerian lawyers, under the aegis of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA)have called on the police to suspend the planned enforcement of tint permits until its lawsuit challenging the policy is resolved.
In a statement today, NBA Publicity Secretary Bridget Edokwe said continuing with the enforcement would undermine the judicial process and potentially render the court’s decision ineffective.
The police, however, have insisted that only a court order can stop the enforcement, which is scheduled to begin on Thursday, October 2.
He said, “Only an order of court can stop the enforcement of an existing law. There is no such order! Mere service of court papers is not equal to a court order. Enforcement of the Motor Vehicle Tinted Glass law commences as planned on Thursday, 2 October 2025.”
