Nigeria: Police Contradict Self Over Legality of Having Sex in Car

Confusion has arisen over whether is is a crime or not to have sex in a car parked in a public place as two police chiefs have disagreed with each other over the matter.

While the Head, Police Public Complaints, Rapid Response Unit, Mr Abayomi Shogunle, said it is not a crime to have sex in one’s car under some circumstances, the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, CP Imohimin Edgal has disagreed with him, saying such assertion is misplaced.

Whereas Mr. Shogunle held that under the Nigerian constitution, having sex in one’s car is not a crime provided the parties involved do not include an underage; or that the car is parked in a religious institution when the act takes place; or that both persons engaged in the sexual activities are of the same gender, the Lagos state Commissioner of Police, Mr. Edgal insisted that sex in a car parked in any public place is a crime punishable with two years in prison under Lagos laws.

In an earlier report, Mr Abayomi Shogunle, who said it is not a crime to have sex in one’s car, therefore, asked that anybody who had been harassed for having sex in a car should report the incident immediately.

Mr Shogunle, stated these while responding to a question on Twitter. Read more
