Insecurity in Abuja: Analyzing the FCT Police’s Decision to Ban Tinted Cars
The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Command has announced a ban on the use of tinted vehicles and covered number plates in Abuja.
This measure aims to curb rising security concerns, as such vehicles have been linked to criminal activities, including “one chance” robberies.
The police have emphasized that violators will be arrested and prosecuted to enhance public safety.
This directive is part of a broader security strategy that also includes clamping down on unregistered vehicles and intensifying patrols in areas prone to crime.
Residents have been urged to comply with the regulations and report any suspicious activities to support the authorities in maintaining order​.
