This post remind of Mba vs Amechi saga in Rivers 2014/2015. When last did COP take order from Governor.
......

Unitary and fake federalism tightened.

That's very nice of of them, the governor's supposed to be controlling the police in his State

Margic fingers to all hustlers out there regardless of this pandemic... May Jah bless. Eit Mubarak to all my Muslim brothers and sisters out there.

Let's wait for this hit "margic finger" coming to you from your one and only Don Smasher..

I don't know of any Commissioner of Police that takes orders from the Governor, I don't know of any.

Reform of everything about the police is long overdue.

Are u sure Rivers commissioner is not taking orders from Wike?

Let see how it goes

Now when Fulani herdsmen go on killing spree, your governor can't do anything because the commissioner of police in the state will be waiting for "orders from Abuja". By the time that order comes (if it even comes), communities would have been wiped out

Make una continue supporting this govt. Na turn by turn

This will make state governors begin to clamor for state police.

joyandfaith:
Good analysis. I am expecting new law to create both federal and state police forces. Shit

That is the way to go.

Then put strict laws that will prevent abuse. All the things we accuse the State Govt of, are also been perpetrated by the Federal as well.

oluwaseyi0:
Bye bye to any thought of state policing

APC that promised to create state police in its manifesto
God is watching you people

gaetano:
This is bad news actually. So the Commissioner of police will stop taking orders from the governor of the state. Let me put it like this... So Abuja will appoint an Ahmed as Commissioner and send him to Enugu, and he won't take orders from the governor on matters of security but from Abuja.

Secondly a Governors in OYO will not have a say in recruitment of security personnel of his state, so lots of non indegines from the North can be sent to his state as security personnel instead of prioritizing those that reside in oyo or are indigenes of oyo state.

The reps from the southern part of the country are big idiots. We understand that they are afraid of giving Governors so much power but this is the time to make decisions that will trigger restructuring.

Governors should stop funding police in their state since the Police won't take orders from them. They should instead equip local vigilante with that resources. Let FG take the responsibility fully.

this issue get merit n demerit. Some Governors do protect their louts from police arrest after they must have committed serious crime.

United Nations should come and resolve the political problems in Nigeria.

Let each state in Nigeria or region be satisfied with the resolution or we go our separate ways.

THERE IS SO MUCH CONFUSION IN NIGERIA.

No one want to listen to the other party.

President Buhari presidency has divided Nigeria far more than any other political leaders.

Those in support have no idea. COS is working, I think Kyari might be a saint after all.

This govt was a sole beneficiary of corrupt policing practices but let me hope they mean well this time and not planning to use this against governors of the opposition parties.

Some clowns wailing on Nairaland voted them in

Who wrote this devilish bill? Concentrating more powers to the hand of the IG does not makes sense, the PSC was designated to check the excess of the IG, this bill must not see the light of the day.

You are a wiseman. The I.G will become as powerful as a Governor. Commissioner will no longer be loyal to the governor of a state and the use of federal might will become another bottleneck.

Sister agencies protecting the Governor will often clash with the police and this will lead to a mass clamour for state and local government police in the long run.

I still believe policing Nigeria the American way is the best way to handle this. Let's each police formation regardless of nomenclature, have their powers and Jurisdiction.

Just like the county sheriff, the State Police Department and the FBI.

jayworld15:
Useless police force. The worst in the whole world in killing, extorting and brutalizing its citizens day and night. In fact, they should just scrap it and start the recruitment all over again, first with intelligent graduates, then psychologically stress-free individuals. They also need to carry out a real mental examination on all of them. Bleep! Imagine invaders robbing you for hours without police in sight. And once the invaders are gone, they arrive, asking stupid questions and carrying out unnecessary investigations. Bleep!

I am sure you are a graduate and you are sound mentally, why haven't you joined the force?

Police dey secure lives bfor or were police dey wen insecurity dey increase for zamfara,katsina,kaduna n d rest. Talk sumtin else

You no go understand until them no dey again.

You think say na because you be odogwu, na im make you dey walk for street and them no dey burst you everyday. Na fear of police cause am.

Say you self no dey burst people everyday, na still fear of police. No be say you nice or dey fear God.

Nigerian politician/governor doesn't deserve state police, the governors are mostly bloody power drunk dictator

If governor want state police they should begin by allowing local government full autonomy, no interference in state assembly etc

But no, dictators only want more power they are never ready to relinquish any of their own power

Why give power to the president over state commissioner of police?



This is a useless bill and a useless Rep and president.

How?the police in every state were recruited by the federal government.

why is he the chief security officer of state if he can't give them.

You’re right. I am what you said.
Firstly, there’s something they called norm. Norm comes from improvisation. While a norm is more like benchmark, something acceptable to be thriving among a group, institution, nation or individuals; improvisation tells you they’re done without proper examination, preparation or conscientious viewpoints. The present police recruitment (largely) is an improvised norm in the national security area known for propagating corruption through the high knowledge of “Social-Connecticut”, bribery for inclusion”, extorting and hungry-looking personnel. Secondly, looking at police welfare, you won’t even advise your own brother to go into that force. The rate of unemployment in the country forces many people to take up the form whereas they know they’d never get there because of Man-Know-Man.

jom28gy:
Thanks police act need amendment for very long time now, what police is currently using is an old law made by colonial Masters, which has no good for the police

The Police Act was amended also in 2004 and also before then. So it is not colonial.
Stripping the Police Service Commission (PSC) of some of its powers and adding them to those of the IGP will not help the Police and the country as whole.

Furthermore saying the Governor as the Chief Security Officer of a State cannot talk to the Police Commissioner is not going to help the security of the State.

DelphiOracle:
Are u sure Rivers commissioner is not taking orders from Wike?

they will discuss, wike cannot order him anyhow.. Did he employ him?.. Na only IG who is appointed by the president can order comiisioner

Ugwueme1:
why is he the chief security officer of state if he can't give them.

the tag of CSO given to governors because of the security vote given to them,

Police commissioners have always decided which orders from Governors to obey or not. Might as well remove the smokescreen.

It is not yet a law, the amendment process still has to go to the senate house for debate.

man know man is not only found in the police force,it is in the nigeria system.
