The NIGERIAN POLICE through ACP Abayomi Shogunle who is in charge of Nigeria Police Public Complaint Response Unit (PPCRU), has stated that having sex in a car in a public place is not a crime.

According to Abayomi Shogunle, having sex in a car in a public place is not a crime and if one tries to make it one, the police should be contacted. He wrote;
