CAN THE POLICE SEARCH YOUR CAR WITHOUT A WARRANT?

Search of a vehicle is permitted without a search warrant provided there is a reasonable suspicion that the vehicle is being used by a person who has been arrested for conveying anything which the officer conducting the search has reason to believe to have been stolen or otherwise unlawfully obtained.
In my Nigeria ? Every body is a suspect

A law enforcement agent carrying our a stop and search should ensure that there is probable cause or reasonable suspicion for such act, otherwise, the fact that the police have power for the prevention and detection of crime under section 4 of the Police Act is not enough defence in a civil action against the erring officer.
