@Gazzuzz the way u arranged ur car papers is really nice but i bet u if u drive in Edo State d police there must find a fault in those papers. I was in Edo State 3wks ago And was driving (a camry) when some police men sopped me. They asked for DL And my car papers which i gave to them. When they saw i had all they asked for, then one of them pointed at my license they the column written colour that its custom they wrote there instead of the vehicle colour. i explained to them that d color of a car can be changed at anytime perhaps that is why d FRSC pple put custom there but they refused hear. After delaying me for about 30mins And discovered i was not ready to drop money, they now allowed me to go.

Another experience wt Nasarawa State police today. I was driving wt my family dis morning when i notice my vehicle temperature getting unusually high. So i parked my car under Keffi bridge, came down, opened d hood, And noticed one of d wires connecting d fan lossed contact. After fixing it And closing d hood. A police van came wt 3 policemen inside blocking my car. They said i was not supposed to park under d bridge. I explained it was my car that developed a fault that made me stop but they still did not want to hear. They tried intimidating me And asked for money but i refused to give them. Then they took me to their station. When we got there, they collected my car keys, vehicle papers And DL. I was still not intimidated. I now requested to see their DPO. Then they started soft-pedalling. Luckily, d DPO heard us n came out. When i explained what happened he barked at them n ordered them to give all d items they took from me. Na so i take free today Oº°˚˚°º . I have lost confidence in d Nigerian police!

@ the bolded did you say family? Those guys must me really mean.


Edo, ondo, 9thmile/enugu, bayelsa, warri..... I've seen them all and I'm always a step ahead. A friend of mine (police) once told me the Problem with nigerian drivers is their inability to follow a case to a logical conclusion they are always in a hurry. Worst case scenario when I'm at a check point with a stubborn chap is to make a "prank" call to a friend who says give them the phone, does some introduction shouts a little, next thing I here is sorry sir yes sir sorry sir he didn't tell us sir we will release him sir and I'm off!! I always beat them at their own game But I always meticulously ensure my papers are intact.
Yes my bro, i was wt my family. That ur scope make sence die. Maybe i ll try it one of these days. And u r very correct about drivers been in a hurry And that is what d police always take advantage of.

Nice thread

I have several cars but my papers are consistent.

For cars got brand new I do not have custom duty certificates or vehicle inspection papers, because the law specifically states its for cars older than 5years, so this is my list

1. Recipt of the vehicle
2.Certificate of ownership
3.Insurance
4.Vehicle licence
5.Recipt of number plate
6.Police clearance
7.Vio or MOT papers
8.Tint permit
9.Photocopy of drivers licence
10.Custom duty certificate
11.Vehicle registration booklet
12. Other papers to make it plenty

Note the only papers you have to renew every year are, 3,4,and 7 others are constant.

All my papers are spiral bound and look like the pic below. Funny thing is I haven't shown any one my papers in about 2 years.
