I like Tinubu. He is implementing everything analysts have been crying about for decades.

Kenochi:
I want to start by commending our House of Reps for taking the bull by the horn,Democracy is a responsive type of government,the government listens to the people and act based on the feedback
The people have been clamouring for state police,the State Governors are just figureheads and can't act to defend their people
States where bandits, kidnappers and ritualists are having a field day will begin to know that the people are ready to defend their terroritites using what is available to them
I am not saying that everything will be perfect but this is one step in the right direction,all policing is local and nothing stops states from having inter state exchange of personnel and intelligence
Our police force is already stretched thin,and the truth is locals don't trust the police to defend them

I encourage the House of Reps to go the whole hog and look at the structure of financing in present day Nigeria,the Federal Government collects too much money and as far as I am concerned do very little
Let the people's house look at reducing the funds at the central and give more money to the Local Governments,this are the closest governments to the people and they must begin to act as the Engine room for reforms and Economic growths
If we get it right at the Local Governments,we will begin to see wealth at lower end of the pyramid and remove more people from endemic poverty

ArewaNightmare:
our governors should not misuse this

TimeManager:
History will be kind to Tinubu, he'd be remembered as the best president yet Nigeria has had. Restructuring is taking a gradual shape, signing into law the bill for states to general their own electricity and more to come with the constitutional review we're getting there.

-kiss the the truth

You are right from the perspective you are coming from also Mytime,
We believed that Our politicians are not civilised enough and tolerant of opposing views and cannot preside over a competent and impartial police force
Cos we remembered,
When in 2018 there was a summit to consider the establishment of State Police, there was a counter argument by the late Abubakar Tsav, a retired police commissioner, that the establishment of state police will signal the beginning of the disintegration of the country, as governors would use the institution “against their perceived political opponents.”
State and federal police commands are also likely to work at cross-purpose.

Our additional reasons of concern are that we have very serious ethnic and religious divides in the country at this time and many governors believe that if they have their own police, they can deal with the other.
For example, the pastoralists and farmers conflicts have been intensifying in many states and some governors have clear proclivities of seeking to expel or protect pastoralists in their states, opening the doors to a new dimension of identity conflicts that would deepen the crisis facing the Nigerian state today.

All said and done,
It will bring more good than bad.

A better Nigeria 🇳🇬 all around is all we want at MANNABBQGRlLLS.
We Rise ✔️

State politicos will equally highjack this one and turn it to thugs

You are right.

Things might be hard right now. But surely we will get there.

It's necessary to have a state police,Let's see how it goes.

SoNature:
The next should be a bill to close down the house of reps. It's totally needless. Whatever the house of reps does, the senate should do it. Nigeria should cut down the cost of governance.

reiddecuti:
We need to embrace our fear and deliberately implement polices that will help make this country workable.

Btruth:
Oya now.......follow by states own electricity generations and others. State should control the resources too.

Let's go abeg.

Follow by the bill to make legislation a part time job,the country is broke we can't afford to keep dashing money to a few group of people who bring nothing to the table .
