If we can't trust state governors with their own police force, then the NPF should recruit more locals and deplore them to their locality.

Also forest rangers.

Nice idea, but then: if you say so. Governors will told their hands over insecurity and say nothing. The President is in Asorock and can not come to each and every state to monitor issues day and night.

The Governors with the state Police on their desk can supervise their state issues and confront any insecurity once they get any information not until they call Abuja.

The Governors will also sit up since they know everything now lies on their hands. People won't be call Tinubu here Tinubu there again

Piddo:
Watch how some governors will use it as an excuse to start dealing in arms. Shebi state police wont be using batons and koboko.

This is not 18th century. This is a civilized world sir. Everyone is watching and acting...

SavageResponse:


Most state governments in Nigeria are struggling to pay staff salaries so I wonder where they will get money to pay staff of the state police?

The solution to insecurity is more an urgent approach than salaries and other matters.

If they will channel all funds to insecurity and creation of State Police right now is better.

State workers can conviniently go to farm

omohayek:

Why do all of you imagine that state policing necessarily means that governors should get to treat the police like their personal armies? That's not how things work anywhere else worth emulating! It's as if Nigerians can't conceive of the idea of division of powers, which is why they also seem to think a president must be an elected dictator able to pass laws and set prices as he pleases.

There is absolutely no reason why state police have to be answerable in any way to a governor, and in fact, it would better that they don't, so we don't have a situation where governors deploy them as enforcers of their personal whims. The heads of state police could be directly elected, just as the governors are, and subjected to an oversight committee appointed by state legislators and LGA chairmen. The important thing is that there should be a mechanism for citizens to hold the police accountable, which is what is completely missing right now.

This accountability issue is why local police at the LGA level would be an even better suggestion than state police, as then both the police and the citizens they should be protecting will know each other by name.

I will suggest you take time to read my comment well and over again, you may see that I have good understanding of how this works.

Your comments should be directed to those who think State Policing is Governors personal Army!

Penguin2:
As much as this idea sounds great due to insecurity, it will just make governors mini tyrants.

I hope they put enough checks mechanism in the law that would set it up to mitigate abuse.

APC governors will just be using state police to rig elections.

In fact, I suspect the reason they are pushing for State Police is to have enough touts that would help execute 2027 elections seeing that nobody in his right senses would vote for them except their brainless supporters.

Bros, no one that has power and won't insult it. State Policing is needed urgently to cobe the insecurity as a matter of urgency.

The Governors are to powerless and everyone waited for the President. It's wrong, let the Governors have their full force to Police their states.

Governors have only 4years, if they abuse powers, we get them arrested the day they hand over power at once.

People are dying, farmers can not go to farm again, Tinubus decision to create state Police is the answer to Nigerias insecurity ASAP

Governors are very powerless, this is the only way every Governor can fight insecurity in their state.

So instead of every one waiting for Tinubu to come and answer to everyinsecurity.... It's better you let the Governors have their powers to Police their states and the President focus on the bigger Terrorist and economics.

Best move by the President. State Police is urgently needed since the mess of insecurity is becoming unbearable couple with the population of the country and it's complexity.

The Residence rush out to rescue the kidnapped people from the terrorist without Arms. Funny, even the Military with all the weapons won't go for rescue without proper plans. RIP to the dead, but next time get sense

Nigeria will grow better under Tinubu. This is a good move. Any Church and business hoarding tithes and goods and services should be shut down, ban and sized!!!!

Welcome the right President of Nigeria. Every must work! If hungry touch you too well, go to the village and farm. We have forest everywhere in the North from Kogi state.

We must pay with our blood for Nigeria to get better

We can't have 2President in the same country. Obi should mind his business and wait for his time - Tinubu waited for 11years. After all, did he fix Anambra!

Even the President himself can not sommon these Men, he can only invite them for discussions.

Who is the common poor Minister. I laugh when I read the headline. Very funny. Only the President have the power to invite them self for discussions.

Funny!!!

BodyCount:
IT'S ESPECIALLY DUE TO DANGOTE'S GREED.


EVIL MAN

ABOKl FO0L ANI F0OL.

But the Aboki North is still the cheapest place to live and school...

Peter Obi evil prayer, but God above all

Chimarto:

Don't call for revolution it will come by it self via Tinubolation inconsistent policies. He built Lagos and yet made cement prize too expensive for himself to the extent that he can not afford it to build Nigeria.

Nigeria is at it best stage for change...

Tinubu is on the right direction.

God bless President Tinubu

As Na Governor dey more important than your life.

You lost both your life and the Governor seat. His family members and his wife must be wicked people, that are supposed to have advice this man to rising, he would have gotten more respect!!!

edunaragold:
all these for Nigerian job,even dangote looks old,na mostly woman dey look younger ,you know it's a woman's world,even in mortuary na men dry die full there than woman.

But most of my female course mate back then in the University are already looking like old women, yet I still look like a boy.
It's not women but personal self. My mum 56 but look younger...

Let this Billionaire try and invite me and see, I will turn his invitation down.

I don't do the things of the world, I deal with spiritual things like the things of the spirit. What is 400,000 wine to drink, or mingle with Genevieve's pussy? I hate nonscence. I am just waiting let him just send me invitation, then I will show him that I don't deal with worldly people like him.

ClassicMan202:

Bitter Obi? Which kind name be this nah.... Parents dey try ohhh

I don't even have one, what I have is smally, a girl of 17years and she is staying with her parents and well fed....

Whose responsibility is to be taking care of girl friends?
Every parents should care for their daughters and they won't look up to their boy friends for gifts.

What I did yesterday was to gift a single mother of 2 who have useless husband that can't control his d*ck and gift another male friend of my money.

I am free

I love the Igbos if not for Bitter G. Obey who brought hatred due to his greed and betrayal....

Aba made drugs, sorry but it's not going to be permanent, you will hear again, though it may be because you did not send money to your village for Christmas this year, that may be the cause.

Me self, I no well...

Jonathan was so weak and allowed everyone to cash out during his Tenure, truly, we need though and intelligent President like Tinubu.

We have all this Billions yet no job....

Blackdisciple:


Me I don't know na

Ok, that is what you should ask or search to know

israelmao:

Election that was marred with irregularities right?

Yes, I understand... But is any election free of poluts in Nigeria? Even at that, he was massively voted for - did you here anyone dispute this fact.

Look the guy is taking that state forward with his successor sir, wait and see.

Indelibleage:
That's serious and very pathetic.

Please I need a location in Ibadan where only youths are doing the retreat. Reply I am not going to work from today till next week. I am not a member but want to attend!

08138206874. I am waiting

israelmao:

Teachers and lecturers were reported hungry and dead because of non-payment salarry arrears you are saying somebody tried.What about the bad state of roads in Kogi State?

Which state is free of any of these you mention?

Also, that was reports fercilitated by political argonist. Yahaya Bello was voted for by the same people's family you claimed died !!!

israelmao:

Take a retrospective look at Bello's first term in office and even to some extent into his second term you will find out the truth,

Sir, the guy tried, that is why he was massively voted for again in likes of his successor

DREAMHOMES6970:
You helped Apc win... Meaning it wasn't really the peoples vote that counted... And this is coming from a reverend father

You don't understand Politics, it's a dangerous game and you can't call it an holy player because he is a Reverend.

But even a Pastor can help in Politics in so many ways aside rigging....

Na every matter them go use worry Tinubu?

Alia is a Governor, let him run the state any how he likes, next election is by the corner, when the time comes, you guys can now decide!

Tinubu should not be called for every matter, we are hungry, only economic matter alone is more than enough for Tinubu to focus on please.

I won't take nonsense if by this time next year I can't see devidence of my vote for Tinubu and APC
