Police Extends deadline for re-validation of Tinted Glass

The Police High Command on Wednesday extended the deadline for revalidation of tinted glass permit and firearms licence to 31st July, 2016.

This is just as the Inspector-General of Police, Solomon Arase, directed all State Commands Commissioners of Police to stay (put on hold) the enforcement of law on tinted glass permit and firearms licence until the expiration of the deadline.

A statement by the Force Public Relations Officer, ACP Olabisi Kolawole quoted the IGP restating “that revalidation of tinted glass permit is free of charge”, and warned Policemen against extortion and harassment of motorists over revalidating their permits and licences.

He, therefore, urged members of the public who are yet to obtain the automated tinted glass permit and firearms license to seize the opportunity of the extension to complete necessary formalities for them to key into the electronic platform.

“The IGP wishes to reassure the public of the commitment of the Force to the provision of round-the-clock security for the teeming citizens of the country” it said.

“Citizens are further enjoined to continue to support and assist the Police in its constitutional task of safeguarding the nation” it concluded.
