State, LG police: What Buhari must do, by Ozekhome, Shittu

Senior Advocate of Nigeria , Chief Mike Ozekhome, and a law teacher Mr Wahab Shittu, have urged President Muhammadu Buhari to send an executive Bill to the National Assembly for the amendment of the 1999 Constitution to allow for state police.

“Sections 214 and 215 of the same Constitution establishes the Nigeria Police Force, giving it powers and duties and its major operatives, such as the Inspector-General of Police and State Commissioners of Police.” “The present arrangement whereby our policing is centralised may have contributed to the upsurge in the rate of criminality in our society.”
