State Police: Constitutional Amendment Nears Completion, Says Presidency

The Presidency announced on Thursday that the Federal Government has made substantial strides toward establishing state police, with a constitutional amendment anticipated in the coming weeks.

Chief of Staff to the President, Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila, disclosed this while briefing State House Correspondents after a high-level consultative meeting convened by the Presidency at the State House, Abuja.
Gbajabiamila said deliberations on the framework for state police began three to four months ago, following a direct order from President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

“Establishing state police is not something that you do with the snap of the fingers. There is a lot involved in terms of constitution and legalities,” he said. “Thank God we have now gained a lot of traction. Hopefully, the amendment will come shortly, and the details of the amendment will come after that.”

He explained that discussions have now advanced to the stage of fine-tuning the necessary constitutional amendments, after which an enabling law will be enacted.
“Right now, what we are looking at is the constitutional amendment itself, and then the enabling law would follow thereafter,” Gbajabiamila added.

The Chief of Staff noted that the national conversation has shifted from whether state police should be established to how best to design its legal and institutional framework. He said there is broad support across the country for the initiative.

Probably going to be their only clear achievement: the launching of the first corrupt State Police!

Hopefully that will solve most of the security issues faced by the country.
Though I don't trust this administration much but I think there are some policies the administration is carrying out that are good for the entire country but viewed as anti a party of the country, hence using banditry to defame his administration.
Nigeria shall be great again.


Tinubu, a bad man with good intentions .
