The IG of police is answerable to the president and not to the state governors. And the CP's are answerable to the IGP. So the state governors don't have any form of control over the police force, except if such a governor is in the same political party as the president, then he can plead with the president to order the IG to do his biddings.
And once the governor is not in the good books of the president, he can't do anything with the CP of his state that will run contrary to the detects of the president.
During the tenure of Amechi as governor of Rivers state, president Jonathan used the then CP of police in the state, Mbu to intimidate and harass Amechi then.

The man is stating a simple fact you are here castigating him. Its either you are a kid or you lack basic understanding or both. You think the police would listen to sanwo-olu if the IGP gives a contrary order?

Despite sanwoolu s order, it took the intervention of the speaker Gbaja and the physical presence of the state house of assembly rep Desmond Elliot at the police station to get protesters released from the police station in surulere......

Makinde was obviously correct

What Makinde said is true... Buhari made sure of that... CP could only get directives from IGP and IGP could only get instructions from C in C , so that it could be easy for him to rig elections


Lagos state governor or any other state governor cannot give directives to any CP. This is because the CP gets his directives from the IGP in Abuja.

I don't know about election riggings, but this chain of command has been around long before Buhari came to power. However, the governor can discuss with the CP on issues and seek to solve them as they arise.

Has nothing to do with incompetence. Makinde for sm reasons has challenges with his whoever is in charge of the police in his state.

We all know the federal can change these cp when they deem fit or want to cause confusion in a state. It almost happened during the ambode/tinubu saga.

Makinde is lamenting cos he has obviously given orders which were not followed. Why is the question. undecided

Exactly ....the best any Governor can do is to have a good rapport with his CP ...with that the CP may need to him on some issues.....the truth remains though that they don't take directives from Governors

Brother, let's look at it like this
In these tweets you posted now the Lagos state governor just spoke about the release of the protesters yesterday at night

And the Oyo state governor has said his own since 10th


That aside if the government really had control over SARS why did they go on to shoot at protesters yesterday? Even when they've supposedly been disbanded

I'm sure you must've come across a video where the Oyo state governor was addressing the public saying that he has commanded the police not to harass protesters and that protesting is absolutely legal

You must've seen a video where the protesters where chanting "shame" at the Lagos state governor like something from the Game of thrones Franchise

This is not true. Does Wike not have authority over the police in Rivers state even in spite of the PDP being in opposition.

What Makinde means is how are the governors called CSo but don’t have power over the police .
As the police is federal police. And that is why people are asking for state police.

Read your constitution .governors have no control over police that’s why a federal order can be given to police to do as they want in the state because it is federal police

You don't need de jure control in order to exercise de facto control.

Take care of your police force and they will listen to you. If all you do is to buy some cars you won't go far but if like Lagos you make provision for their children's education and set up a welfare fund for those who die in office, you will have their loyalty. Simple Pavlovian reality.

The two tweets are contrary though some people still misunderstood or misinterpreted them. Makinde is saying that governors are being referred to as oga patapata for security in their respective state but in reality, the security take orders from above (presidency).

Sanwo Olu's tweet showed that governor is oga patapata as he ordered the security to release arrested protesters and they obeyed.

Can you say the same thing about Wike in the way he's handling police in Rivers State?

GoodofNaija:
If OP is smart, you will know it's because of party differences at the federal level. The control of PDP governor over the APC controlled police is limited.

Yes, the governors are figure head chief security officers. But there are ways to flatten that curve, as a governor you have to have a good working relationship with the commissioner of police in your state so when you need something you can get it pretty quick.
