The government of Enugu State has banned the unauthorised use of vehicle tinted glasses in the state.
In a statement issued by the secretary to the state government, Prof Chidiebere Onyia on Monday, the government disclosed that the ban shall take effect in September, after four weeks of the notice.
He added that enforcement would commence on Monday, September 4, 2023.
“This is to give owners of vehicles with tinted glasses, who did not obtain Police Tinted Permits before the suspension of its issuance by the Nigeria Police Force on 7th June 2021, sufficient time to have them removed or replaced (if they are factory fitted), in accordance with the provisions of the law.
“Defaulting vehicles shall be impounded by the enforcement taskforce and shall not be released to their owners until the tinted glasses are removed or replaced and the specified fines paid”, the statement read.
While soliciting the understanding and cooperation of the general public in that regard, the statement reiterated that the ban is primarily aimed at curtailing the activities of criminals and to generally enhance the security and safety of the good people and residents of Enugu State.
