BREAKING: Nigeria Police Ban Use Of Tinted Glasses In Vehicles, To Enforce Law—-The Nigeria Police Force, FCT Command said it will commence the enforcement of ban on tinted glasses and covering of number plate.

FCT Commissioner of Police, CP Olatunji Disu stated this while parading some suspects arrested for various crimes in the nation’s capital on Tuesday.

The police commissioner said 296 vehicles have been impounded for violations such as the use of tinted glasses, driving with only one plate number and the use of concealed or defaced number plates.

He also said police operatives have successfully foiled five ‘One Chance’ robbery operations and rescued three victims who were abducted by these criminal elements.

CP Disu noted that, “These achievements highlight the effectiveness of our proactive strategies and show the importance of public collaboration in ensuring the safety of all FCT residents.”

Recall that the Force Public Relations Officer, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi issued the statement on Saturday in response to a query on social media, emphasising that there is a law prohibiting the use of tint on vehicles.

Adejobi clarified that while the police had suspended the enforcement of the ban, this was due to a pause in the issuance of tint permits.

According to him, “There is a ban on it. It’s even a legal matter because there is a law on it. The police only suspended the enforcement of the law because we had suspended the issuance of the tint permit.”

He further explained that the police may exercise discretion in certain cases, particularly to investigate whether a vehicle with tinted windows is being used for criminal activities.

He also noted that the practice had been widely abused in the past.

Speaking on some of the major arrests, the police commissioner said “On November 23, 2024, at approximately 1pm, operatives from the State Intelligence Department (SID) apprehended one Ibrahim Kabiru during routine patrol along Ahmadu Bello Way. Suspicious circumstances surrounding his parked vehicle prompted a search, revealing one Point-of-Sale (POS) machine, one knife, scissors, two mobile phones and female luggage suspected to be stolen.

“Upon interrogation, Kabiru failed to provide a satisfactory explanation for the items, raising concerns about his involvement in ‘One Chance’ robberies.

“He is in custody and will be charged to court upon conclusion of the investigation.”

Similarly, the CP said police operatives on November 28, 2024 at approximately 7pm, received a distress call reported an ongoing robbery along Idu Industrial Area Road.

“Police operatives from Karimo Division swiftly responded, arresting one Ikechukwu Ngerem at the scene and rescuing the victim, Doris Gabriel, a heavily pregnant woman.

“Preliminary investigations revealed that Doris had been abducted on her way home from Federal Medical Center, Jabi by a gang posing as commercial vehicle operators,” the CP narrated.

BREAKING: Arsenal Defeat Chelsea 2-1 at Emirates to Extend Unbeaten Run—-The Gunners came from behind after Morgan Rogers’ early opener, with Kai Havertz and Martin Ødegaard completing a comeback victory to maintain Arsenal’s perfect start to the Premier League season.

Arsenal produced another statement performance at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday, coming from behind to defeat Chelsea 2-1 and maintain their perfect start to the Premier League campaign.

Chelsea stunned the home crowd after just 77 seconds, when Morgan Rogers fired Xabi Alonso’s side into an early lead. Arsenal, however, responded strongly and gradually took control of the contest.

Kai Havertz restored parity in the 25th minute against his former club, finishing Arsenal’s sustained pressure to make it 1-1 before the break.

The Gunners continued to dominate after the restart and completed the comeback through captain Martin Ødegaard, who struck early in the second half after Havertz’s clever movement helped create the opening.

Chelsea pushed desperately for an equaliser late on, but Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya produced a crucial save to deny Estêvão and preserve all three points for the hosts.

The victory means Arsenal remain on nine points from three matches, level with Manchester City at the top of the Premier League. Chelsea, meanwhile, suffer their first league defeat of the season and remain on six points.

For Mikel Arteta, the comeback further underlined Arsenal’s championship credentials. The reigning champions showed composure after conceding their first goal of the campaign and once again demonstrated their ability to respond under pressure.

Chelsea’s defeat will be frustrating for Alonso, particularly after his side made such a fast start. Despite their attacking threat, Arsenal’s control and defensive resilience ultimately proved decisive.

The result also extends Arsenal’s remarkable unbeaten run against Chelsea to 12 matches across all competitions, further strengthening the Gunners’ recent dominance in the London derby.

BREAKING: Manchester City Agree £125m Deal to Sign Enzo Fernández From Chelsea On Deadline Day

BREAKING: Manchester City Agree £125m Deal to Sign Enzo Fernández From Chelsea On Deadline Day—-Cityzens have reached a British record-equalling agreement with Chelsea for the Argentina international on Deadline Day, with Fernández set to undergo his medical.

Manchester City have agreed a £125 million deal with Chelsea to sign Enzo Fernández in one of the biggest transfers of Deadline Day.

The agreement, reported by Sky Sports and other leading outlets, will see the Argentina international leave Stamford Bridge for the Etihad Stadium in a move that matches the British transfer record previously set by Liverpool’s £125m signing of Alexander Isak.

Fernández is expected to undergo his medical before completing the transfer, with City working against the clock to finalise the deal before the summer transfer window closes.

Maresca Reunites With Fernández

The move will see Fernández reunite with Enzo Maresca, who previously coached him at Chelsea and is now Manchester City’s manager.

Maresca is understood to have been a major driving force behind City’s pursuit of the midfielder as he looks to reshape his squad and strengthen the centre of midfield.

Fernández played an important role during Maresca’s time at Stamford Bridge, helping Chelsea win major silverware before the Italian manager’s move to Manchester.

Chelsea Accept Record Fee

Chelsea signed Fernández from Benfica in January 2023 for approximately £107 million, making him one of the most expensive players in Premier League history at the time.

Just over three years later, Chelsea have agreed to sell the 25-year-old for £125 million, representing a significant return on their original investment.

The Argentine had recently been left out of Chelsea’s squad for successive matches, increasing speculation that his Stamford Bridge future was coming to an end.

City Make Deadline-Day Statement

Manchester City had been pursuing Fernández for much of the summer, but negotiations intensified dramatically as the transfer deadline approached.

Chelsea had previously valued their midfielder at around £120 million and had initially expected him to remain at the club after an earlier deadline for bids passed without a formal offer. However, City’s interest never disappeared, and the two clubs eventually found an agreement on Deadline Day.

The final £125 million package now puts Fernández level with the British transfer record.

Fernández Begins New Chapter

For Fernández, the transfer brings an end to a turbulent period at Chelsea and opens a new chapter under a manager he already knows.

The World Cup-winning midfielder arrived in England with enormous expectations after starring for Argentina and Benfica.

At Manchester City, he will be expected to become a central figure in Maresca’s midfield and help the club compete on multiple fronts.

A Record-Breaking Transfer

The £125 million agreement places Fernández among the most expensive players in football history and makes the Deadline Day transfer one of the biggest stories of the summer window.

City are now racing to complete the remaining formalities, including the medical, before the deadline.
