Especially those Micra and buses, they will surely poison one with partially combusted air if one attempts boarding any.

Road Worthiness is for all vehicles, sir... whether private or commercial

They are actually right

But they seem to only be after private cars. There's no commercial bus in Nigeria today that is roadworthy. Let me not talk about trucks.

Roadworthiness does not solve any problem but rather a source of government revenue. How many accident has they prevented through roadworthiness ?

I saw a thread here last year April when Court of appeal stop VIO from asking Private cars for road worthiness but the rivers state police and task force are above the law.

Road worthiness is one of the the serious issue River State private car owners are facing with police joined with River State revenue task force.

The task force joined with police are now forcing people to do road worthiness which is #6000. Even if you tell them that road worthiness is not for Private cars, they will collect your particulars and your driver's license with the help of police.

Currently we don't know if they will add hacken permit for private car owners in river state.

Imagine road worthiness alone is 6000.

4500 for road worthiness, 1750 for MOT ( ministry of transportation)


Hacken carriage is already being made compulsory in Delta

I'm stunned that people are questioning road worthiness for private vehicles!

It's like saying air worthiness should apply only to commercial aircrafts but not to Private Jets.
Re: Is It A Must For Private Car Owner To Have Road Worthiness? by oneMalik: 4:30pm On Mar 29, 2022
which kind court be that wey go stop private vehicle from geting ROAD WORTHINES ?

from my observation is number 1 paper you must get. how on earth will someone drive a NON-ROAD WORTHY VEHICLE ?

The cost is what I will never support . thats too hight for someone like me and average Nigerian .

By right one need to take his/her vehicle to VIO office and thier job is to inspect it and see if what you brought can still be ok on the road for the next 6months or 1 year..... why that kind of big money ?

They are actually right
A court in edo or delta state ruled against it, saying private vehicles do not require the certificate, only commercial ones.
Re: Is It A Must For Private Car Owner To Have Road Worthiness? by McLizbae: 4:41pm On Mar 29, 2022
But when you consider the Nigerian roads, you will agree that the roads are actually not vehicle worthy at all.

Mr. Obembet, Pls seek clarification very well before coming to public place. The rational behind Joint Task Force and Police request for Road Worthiness from private car onwers in Rivers State is to generate revenue for Ministry of Transport for N1,750.00. The receipt and evidence of payment of N1,750.00 must be attached to your Roadworthiness.

I know it is a pain, but roadworthiness is very very necessary.

The thing is, a lot of accidents in this country are caused by badly maintained cars.

Best to have standards, even if it makes us uncomfortable.

How many vehicles that have Roadworthiness Certificate are actually road worthy in the real sense of it?

And how many of our roads are Vehicle worthy?

How many times you went for Roadworthiness paper renewal and the licencing office inspected your vehicle? The paper is not to keep unworthy cars out but just to make revenue for government.

The truth is road worthiness is only required for commercial vehicles going by the recent appeal court judgement. However, you need to wait for the case to get to supreme court and seen to afinal before you start confronting VIO/Police officers.

When supreme court uploads the appeal court judgement VIO won't have a choice but to comply, otherwise they will be breaking the law when they ask a private vehicle owner for road worthiness



No, you maintain the status quote until the case is finally retired. Besides, road worthiness has always been required for vehicles only. I've been driving for long here in the Southwest, nobody has ever asked me for road worthiness. The same is so for all my friends and relatives. They don't require private vehicles to carry road worthiness here. Politicians are just insanely wicked people running government for their own welfare.
Re: Is It A Must For Private Car Owner To Have Road Worthiness? by seunayantokun(m): 5:26pm On Mar 29, 2022
If a vehicle is not roadworthy, what is it doing on the road? Safety matters and every vehicle must be duly certified to be roadworthy.

VIO arrest people for road worthiness in Lagos. In fact , presently they make it compulsory that u take ur vehicle down to LACVIS inspection centre before issuing the road worthiness certificate
