Nigeria Police Force, Yobe State command has banned the use of tinted glasses and covered number plates by vehicle users in the state.
The command issued the ban in a statement made available to the press on Friday by the command’s spokesperson, DSP Dungus Abdulkarim.
His command also banned overloading by Keke Napep riders in the state, noting that the act is a large contributor to crime and accident-related offenses.
“Intelligence reports indicate that people with dubious characters hide behind tinted glasses to perpetrate crime, thereby concealing their identity from security operatives and good members of the public”, the Command said.
“The Commissioner of Police, therefore, gave all police formations and Divisional Police Officers across the state a marching order to arrest and prosecute motorists who violate any of the traffic regulations with effect from Monday 10th July 2023”, the statement said.
