Exactly Mr. Obasanjo. A Constitution recognized, deliberated and agreed structure is always the best.

Every politician becomes a seasoned adviser once he leaves office. He was once a powerful president and castigated governors Tinubu Of Lagos and Mbadinuju of Anambra on issue of state police.

Why didn't he support the call then?

and local government chairman will embezzle the fund same way federal and state do
solmusdesigns:
cool



We need Local Government police, like County Sheriffs


If we stenghten Local Government, with funds and security, Nigeria would change instantly

But right now we focus on Abuja, everything Abuja, while most people spend their whole life in their states and Local Government

When Nigerian politicians are no more in power they begin to have good ideas and love people.They begin to see mistakes of people in government.

Obasanjo is the problem of yoruba race of this generation. Tinubu was the first person/governor pushing for the state police and independent power plant right from 1999 when Obasanjo too was the president, but this very vindictive and cruel Obasanjo shutdown the ideas and started using it against Tinubu stating that states cannot generate power but only FG and if state police is allowed, it will be used to rig elections and basically empowers governors with state police.

With state police, opposition parties and opponents will become dead in all the states as the police essentially become official thugs of the various state governors. I hope Nigerians know what they are asking for.
Re: Obasanjo: With State Police, Amotekun Won’t Be Necessary by PHijo(m): 7:37am On Feb 02, 2021
With state police things will get worse! A better solution may be LGA police. Caps can be placed on the number of active policemen each LGA is allowed to have, these caps will be determined by peculiarities like geography, population etc.
Re: Obasanjo: With State Police, Amotekun Won’t Be Necessary by Taiwojon(m): 7:42am On Feb 02, 2021
yeah.
you are right obj.

with state police will bribery of #50 end?
with state police will innocent citizens be spare?
will Justice prevail?
will killing of innocent one be spare?
will the law prevail?..

all this still would amount to anything.
that is why nigerian needs Jesus not state police. that is why Nigerian needs to repent.
repent and give your life to Jesus.

Jesus save

You are a dickhead..and little wonder you don't see beyond what is on the surface.

When police officers were being roasted like they mean nothing, what do you expect to be the aftermath? You expect them to put in their best?

When guns were being carted away from police stations and stations razed down, where do you expect these guns to go to? Police headquarters?

You sound as if Fulani herdsmen are the only reason for the insecurity bedeviling us at the mo'. You should stop being hypocritical.

okay let me just agree to disagree to avoid further argument grin

The police we have now are they not worse off...police that plant hard drugs (igbo) on people's vehicles, rob, get drunk during official hours, ingest illicit substances, serve as armed security for people of questionable characters, extort, organise kidnapping and above all poorly trained/ uneducated mostly...how low can we go before we realise state police is long overdue.

This is a real mad man. Always talking from all sides of his mouth, each side producing a quite contradictory nonsense.

GreatrAnalyst:
Nigeria is too primitive to have state police.

If the service chiefs heading the Police, the armed forces, the Navy...could become political tools in the hands of the GCFR, so why won't the governors of each state use the police head of their state to become political police forces, using them to harass oppositions and gag dissenting voices or opinions?

Nigeria has not started, may be until when each person in political offices, in uniform and government parastatals and even the citizens realise that loyalty first is to the constitution and not some rulers.

Imagine Wike controlling his state police or Sanwo who called the army to the toll gate scene but denied so, having his own state police under his control or the northern governors with Sharia controlling their own police?
Nigeria is ripe... with social media it would be extremely difficult to gag the public... the service chiefs you mentioned, it was still same social media that engineered their dismissal..

If the opposition is clean, the state politicking has nothing against him or her.

Old age don they affect Baba Iyabo small small!

Destroyers herdsmen are killing, maiming , raping my people on my soil NOW and he Obasanjo is talking about State Policing?

Will State Policing be formed today? Are we to fold out arms and let our people be slaughterd like chicken all in the name of waiting for State Policing?

Obasanjo himself has the chance to write his names in Golden Colors, but he failed. He rather chose to dine and wine with retarded marauders.

Baba should just sit back and watch my generation correct the mistake called Nigeria.

The disintegration of Nigeria is imminent.
so you want him to declare a civil war or what?
