DLA Chairman Samuel M. Memeh Advocates Police Reform

Barrister Samuel M. Memeh, the National Chairman of the Democratic Leadership Alliance (DLA), called for urgent police reform and greater accountability in government during the party's campaign launch in Abuja. This event marked the official commencement of the DLA's campaigns and the presentation of Certificates of Return to its candidates for the 2027 elections.

Memeh highlighted the unacceptable levels of killings, kidnappings, banditry, and terrorism, asserting that Nigerians should live without fear. He advocated for intelligence-driven security operations, modern technology, and improved training for security personnel.

He also proposed comprehensive reforms for the Nigeria Police Force, including better welfare and modern investigative tools. Additionally, Memeh supported the idea of constitutionally safeguarded state policing as a complementary measure to address insecurity.

He expressed concerns over economic hardships faced by Nigerians and called for policies that would protect vulnerable citizens and improve living standards. The DLA aims to shift focus towards production and innovation to foster national development.
