The Federal High Court in Warri, Delta State, has ordered the Nigeria Police Force and Inspector-General Kayode Egbetokun to maintain the status quo in the controversial tinted glass permit case.
The court, in Suit No. FHC/WR/CS/103/2025 warned the police against enforcing or altering the disputed policy until the matter is resolved, stressing that disobedience would amount to contempt.
This ruling follows a warning from the Nigerian Bar Association’s Section on Public Interest and Development Law (NBA-SPIDEL), which accused the police of disregarding the rule of law by enforcing the policy despite pending suits in Abuja and Warri challenging its legality.
