michlan:


Now let us relate your argument to the initial statement that led to the debate. The governor said they lack 'necessary power to control the police force', can you in all honesty say his submission is wrong? The question the OP has been trying to deflect is do they have 'necessary powers to control' the police force?


This is not about my own opinion or what I honestly believe in or not, this is strictly about the Nigerian constitution so separate your opinion and personal or political sentiments and strictly face the constitution.

Of course, the governor's submission is very wrong because there's a provision within the Nigerian constitution that abrogated powers to state governors and because the governor knows nothing about such pers in the constitution doesn't mean he's not empowered by the constitution to control the police especially as the chief law enforcement officer in his state.

The governor is free to announce to the public the specific order or orders he gave to the Nigerian police that they refused to obey.

It's right there in black and white that governors can give lawful orders and the police must obey such orders and if they need further clarification from their heads in Abuja, they are free to do so, but to say he doesn't have powers to control Nigerian police makes no sense,

#EndSars should switch to #RestructureNigeria

Only then will they listen to us.. only then we can gather more crowd and even earn the backing of some of the Political class.

SARS is just a fraction of our many troubles in Nigeria... You and I know we need more than just #EndSars. Restructuring is the answer and it's only the youth that has the strength and number to make it happen. #RestructureNigeria
