‘We Don’t Issue 3rd Party Insurance, We Only Enforce It’ – Nigeria Police Cautions Social Media Influencers
‘We don’t issue 3rd Party Insurance to vehicle owners, we only enforce it’ – Nigeria Police cautions social media influences.
Explained that the responsibility for obtaining the insurance lies with vehicle owners through their insurance companies.
The Nigeria Police Force (NPF) has debunk fake news being peddled by social media influencers and activists that it is using the Third-Party Insurance policy to rake in money, noting that the police is only responsible for its enforcement.
In a statement on Saturday February 1st 2025, the Force explained that the responsibility for obtaining the mandatory insurance lies with vehicle owners through their respective insurance companies and not the Police.
It will be recalled that the Force on February 1st 2025 (today) commenced the enforcement operations of the insurance policy, aimed to enhance road safety and protect the rights of accident victims.
“The attention of the police has been drawn to misinformation and misleading comments credited to some social media influencers and activists antagonising the police on the issuance and enforcement of the 3rd party insurance policy, where the NPF has been alleged of using the policy to rake in money.”
“The Nigeria Police Force wishes to emphasize that it does not issue third-party insurance as it has been misconstrued by some individuals. The responsibility for obtaining this mandatory insurance lies with vehicle owners through their respective insurance companies.”
“In light of this enforcement, the Force therefore cautions social media influencers and activists against spreading misinformation regarding insurance policies as the police is solely for the enforcement, not the issuance of the insurance cover.”
“Dissemination of accurate information is vital to prevent misleading the public, while misconceptions can eventually lead to non-compliance and potential legal repercussions for motorists.”
