The South-West Security Network Agency, code named  ‘Amotekun’, has impounded no fewer than 50 vehicles with unauthorised tinted glasses in Ondo state.

Amotekun Commander in the state, Adetunji Adeleye , in a chat with journalists at the agency’s headquarters noted that the government had earlier given a two-week ultimatum to all vehicle users with tinted glasses to obtain police permit.

Adeleye explained that some hoodlums are fond of hiding under the darkness at night, moving around, using such vehicles to commit evil acts in the state.

The Amotekun boss disclosed that recently, there was an intelligence report that bandits are about striking and carrying out nefarious activities in some parts of the southwest, and the public was notified of it.

He noted that subsequently,  there were armed robbery attacks in some of the areas mentioned in the report; one in Ekiti and one in Osun state.

He added that operatives of the Amotekun Corps, the Nigerian Police, and the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) are already positioned on the major roads in the state to enforce the directive.

Speaking further, Adeleye also debunked the allegation that some of his officers were going around checking people’s phones and demanding vehicle particulars of motorists on the roads.

The Amotekun chief described the allegations as cheap social media blackmail which could not prevent the security outfit from ensuring the safety of the residents of the state.
