The Nigeria Police Force has suspended nationwide enforcement of its tinted glass permit policy, following an interim court order that restrained the move.
‎The Force announced on the 15th of December, 2025, that it would begin enforcing the policy on the 2nd of January, 2026, citing its responsibility to ensure public safety and internal security.
‎However, in a statement issued on Thursday and signed by Force Public Relations Officer Benjamin Hundeyin, the police disclosed that they were served with an interim order on the 17th of December, 2025.
‎The enforcement would remain suspended pending the hearing and determination of the substantive suit or the vacation of the interim order.
‎The police also confirmed that they had entered an appearance in the case, raised preliminary objections, and formally requested the vacation of the interim order.
‎The case has been adjourned to the 20th of January, 2026, for further proceedings.
