"President Buhari Has Not Approved State Police" - Presidency. by naptu2(op): 7:04pm On Jun 03, 2019
There was a previous report that stated that President Buhari had approved the establishment of state and local government police.

See report here:

President Buhari Approves State, LG Police.

I was surprised by the other report, because that was not my understanding of what the president said.

The Presidency has now stated the correct position.

Re: "President Buhari Has Not Approved State Police" - Presidency. by ozoigbondu:
The president does not have the power to create state police it must be approved by the national assembly and knowing them it will take years for it to be approved

S 214 (1) of 1999 Const states: "There shall be a police force for Nigeria, which shall be known as the NPF, and subject to the provisions of this section no other police force shall be established for the Federation or any part thereof."

This is why the NA matters a lot and why saharareporters are liars

Approved or not approved is not my problem.

My concern is that, I hope these state and local govt police won't be abuse by these selfish governors if approval is finally given.. .. Hmmm.. I reserve my comment till I see how they will be armed...

It is well.. My signature trend talks about company registration.. Done more than 200 jobs for our fellow nairalanders.

The politicians intimidate the populace with Nigerian Police on regular basis. Guess what will happen when FG now give them full powers to determine the security apparatus in their state. #saynotostatepolice
