The Nigeria Police Force has reacted to reports claiming that a court had ordered it to maintain the status quo on the enforcement of the tinted glass permit regulation.
Human rights lawyer, Inibehe Effiong, had earlier posted on X that the court directed the police to suspend actions on the matter.
However, the Force Public Relations Officer, CSP Benjamin Hundeyin, clarified on Saturday via the police’s official X handle that the court order had not yet been formally served on the Force.
“While we have not been officially served the court order you’re making reference to, let me, in the meantime, show point number eight (of the same order) since you left that part out and focused only on point number six. Nigerians deserve a complete picture, not a skewed one,” Hundeyin stated.
On Friday, the Federal High Court sitting in Warri, Delta State, issued an interim order directing the Nigeria Police Force and the Inspector-General of Police to maintain the status quo in the ongoing case concerning the tinted glass permit regulation.
