Don’t demand custom papers from drivers – Police

The Nigeria Police Force (NPF) has directed officers across the country to stop demanding Customs papers from drivers.

The Acting Force Public Relations Officer (FPRO), CSP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, issued the directive via his Twitter handle.

Adejobi equally added that the issuance of tinted glass permits remains suspended.

He said officers are only expected to stop such vehicles, search them as well as the occupants.

“No policeman should demand your customs papers. Except they are on joint operation, but not just on mere routine checks.

“We have suspended the issuance of tinted glass permits, so we don’t expect our men to disturb Nigerians on this.

“We are to stop any vehicle with tints, search the vehicles, and its occupants, but not to delay for not having tinted glass permits”, he tweeted.

The police spokesman encouraged Nigerians to report personnel who delay them for custom papers.
