Tinted Glass: Despite Reps Demand For 90 Days Grace Period, FCT Police Say Enforcement Remains
The Commissioner of Police, Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Olatunji Disu, has said the command would sustain impounding vehicles that have tinted glass.
Naija News reported that the House of Representatives, during plenary, last week, demanded the FCT Police Command to withhold enforcing the ban for 90 days.
The House’s resolution followed a motion of urgent national importance brought by Honourable Mukhtar Tolani Shagaya.
Shagaya said though the FCT Police Command banned tinted glass on vehicles to combat insecurity, its enforcement was affecting the economy of many homes and commercial vehicle drivers.
However, Disu, in a video interview from the Command’s Public Relations Officer, SP Josephine Adeh, on Wednesday morning, said tinted glass ban enforcement continues.
Disu explained that the enforcement has helped to reduce instances of one-chance robbery in the capital city.
The FCT Police Commissioner emphasized that about 20 vehicles impounded by officers for one chance have tinted glasses.
“We are going to sustain it and then by now you see that the usual complaints we have had about one chance has gone down. In fact, for the past one or two weeks, we have not had even one case of one chance happening because our officers have been deployed.
“We have changed our tactics and we have been picking them almost every day. We have been able to remove close to 20 vehicles used by One Chance operators from operations. So that means over 20 groups of people operating one chance robbing innocent citizens have been removed from circulation.
So that is a thing of joy. So if you notice that this crime has gone down definitely the reason is obvious all the risks and the arrest we have made.
And then I will not fail to mention that all the vehicles recovered from one chance all of them have something in common, they have tinted glasses.
There are new things we are beginning to discover, people tinting their vehicles completely even the screen the windscreen are also tinted
“So this is giving us concern, it evades visibility. So we wonder how you will be able to see clearly maybe that is why they cut small holes by the two sides of the window for visibility,” Disu said.
