The presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso, has expressed an openness to restructuring, including the enactment of state police across the federation, as long as it is in accordance with the constitutional provisions.

“If you check our blueprint, you will find that we’re very much open to restructuring, including state police. They are part of our own understanding of restructuring,” Kwankwaso said during The People’s Townhall 2023, a live programme organised by Channels Television in Abuja on Sunday evening.

“While we believe that we will listen to the people, we will do the right thing, at the same time, we will follow due process. This is not something that the President will sit in his bedroom and announce the change of constitution to insert the issue that affects the relevant clauses in the constitution.

“We are ready to follow due process as long as Nigerians are interested in that. But on the other hand, we believe most of these things coming up are as a result of government failure. Once everything is going well, all these things will die down.”

Security votes

Kwankwaso, who is a former governor of Kano State, also promised to put an end to the allocation of security votes for the sitting president.

“For the eight years I was governor, I have never taken one naira on the issue of security votes and I have inherited governments there were taking N10m in a day seven times, ten times. In fact, at a stage, we had a record of 12 times because the governor can only approve N10m so they would take N10m times whatever number they want,” he said.

“The only thing that we did not publish for the eight years I was governor was the money given to the security agents but we have the record. So, security votes, in my own opinion, is a big way of stealing money because that is why I have never done it; if I have the opportunity again, there would not be anything like security votes in the presidency.

“So, we have seen cases where a lot of money is been siphoned in the name of security votes and nobody can defend it and, in my opinion, I think that should be stopped using whatever means because it’s only a good way of taking cash from the treasury”

They all know Nigeria problems and the ways out of the problems, after all they created the problems. They use the problems as campaign promises. Guess what? They will never implement their promises, because whatever improve the lives of ordinary Nigerians blocks inflow of illicit money into the pockets of elite politicians. we've heard so many sweet things in the past, this is not the first time, it won't be the last too.

State policing cannot work in the Nigerian state. It has more cons than pro. It will birth dictatorship at state level and same time make more people above the law!

The Federal might is the only way to tackle insecurity with restructured, equipped and massive funds channeled into institutions.

The Number of votes Kwankwaso will get in Kano state alone will be morethan the total votes of Peter Obi in the entire south east. Kwankwaso is the most competent among all the presidential candidates going by their records in public services...He has achieved somuch as a governor in Kano state morethan Peter Obi

One truth southerners should know, North West and North east can never restructure Nigeria..
Only NC can, even No southerner can...
