The police say having sex in a car in public space is not a crime.
Abayomi Shogunle, head of the public complaint rapid response unit (PCRRU), said this in a tweet on Tuesday.
A Twitter user with the handle Stanley_Moses13 had asked Shogunle: “Oga @YomiShogunle please is it a crime to have sex in your car?.”
The head of the PCRRU said as long the sex is consensual and not done in a place of worship, it is not a crime.
He said if any member of public is threatened over sex in a car, they should contact the PCRRU.
“NO. Sex in a car in a public place is not a crime in Nigeria provided;
1. Location is not a place of worship
2. Parties are 18 yrs+
3. The act is consensual (agreed to by parties)
4. Parties are of opposite sex
If threatened with an arrest over above, pls contact @PoliceNG_PCRRU,” Shogunle tweeted.
