Kayode Egbetokun, the inspector-general of police, has extended the deadline for the enforcement of the tinted glass permit to August 12, 2025.
This move follows several concerns and feedback from the public regarding the re-activation of the digital application process for the permit.
In a statement on Saturday by Olumuyiwa Adejobi, the force public relations officer, the police acknowledged the importance of public input in shaping its policies.
”The extension of enforcement is also intended to give room for additional enhancements and refinements to the application process, ensuring that no member of the public is unduly disadvantaged,” Adejobi said.

He noted that the extension provides additional time for the force to enhance and refine the application process.
”The NPF is actively working to simplify and improve both the physical and contactless application options including enhanced verification mechanisms and streamlined procedures to reduce delays and eliminate undue inconveniences,” Adejobi added.
“Members of the public are reminded that the authorized platform for the application and renewal of the Tinted Glass Permit is accessible via http://www.possap.gov.ng. Citizens are also encouraged to report all unauthorized or hidden charges as well as extortion in the course of application or biometric capturing to the appropriate Police authorities, including via the dedicated hotline: 09169967000.”
