IGP Disu Submits Framework for State Police to Senate
On Thursday, IGP Disu submitted a 75-page document to the Nigerian Senate regarding the creation of state police in Nigeria. This framework aims to decentralize policing in the country and was presented as part of a broader effort to enhance national security.
The document outlines the proposed structure and operational procedures for state police and was submitted on behalf of the IGP to the Senate Committee reviewing the 1999 Constitution. The Deputy President of the Senate commended IGP Disu for his proactive approach in establishing state police, noting that this initiative aligns with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's agenda to strengthen national security.
The Senate Committee will examine the framework alongside other memoranda submitted for the review of the country's constitution, following President Tinubu's recent call for the establishment of state police.
